FRA-TLV going from L/H to S/H - How do you feel about it?

I'm surprised there isn't more discussion (other than a few posts in the "who will lose First" thread) here about the upcoming loss of Long Haul product on the FRA-TLV route.

BA are downgrading the LHR-TLV to an A321 but with a proper business class and lie flat seats, better Economy class, and three daily flight yet we're all moaning about the move bitterly...

LH are properly downgrading the route to an A320/1 with European configuration meaning no proper C, after years of running 744s and A340 with proper C and F yet it hasn't created even a fraction of the "noise" it has on the BA forum (thread about TLV changes now reaching over 300 posts...).

So any of you TLV route regulars, how do you feel about it? I for one cannot see myself choosing LH for future travel and if I were wanting *A I would go for LX (well at least while they still offer a proper L/H product.
