Your point about revenue is valid, but he was talking about cost; which is now increasing and more distant and uncompetitive from the Mainline.
CASM=COST (per) Available Seat Mile and Kirby just made the demoninator smaller.

What did you expect to happen, the 50 seater is still required in slotting restrictions at some airports. They just can't go away.
