All I know is I have seen a massive explosion in the number of RJ's on the ramps, expansion in the number of gates they occupy, and the replacement of city pairs that used to be exclusively or almost exclusively served by mainline and are now exclusively or almost exclusively served by RJ's.
Maybe my eyes are deceiving me, but the numbers should tell the story. You just have to make sure you are using numbers that tell the whole story, not just part of it.
The number of hulls is decreased. Delta publishes those number under the Marketing section of DALnet.
ASM's has gone up in the short term, but will be going down now as they cannot replace 50 seat jets for 76 seat jets.
