Doesn't really matter, you're still arguing whether apples are better than bicycles; they two business models are completely different, and they serve very different markets. Might as well compare Ryanair with AF; what's the point?
You'll also find the legacies (including DL/NW) serving many/most of those same "third tier" airports. So your point in bringing that up is ... ?
If you don't like my criticism, please explain how DL/NW will ever be profitable with any degree of consistency.
