So, you're saying that because SFO-SNA worked out so well for VX, that they should go headlong into an assault on WN AND AS? They should spend time building up a new hub not to run against AA, who loses money, but the two airlines that actually consistently make money?

There's also a problem with utilization if you don't have the ability to fly a plane shorthaul after a longhaul, like JFK-LAX-SFO.
