I don't know... I think that UA should just fly out of there domestically only. Other than the locals who might get inconvenienced, EWR is a much more modern airport and allows for shorter connection times as well (and will get even better when UA abandons terminal A)
that is so wrong.
IAD is a great airport for connection. UA operates all its mainline flights from C&D. If you arrive in a domestic and connect to an international, you simply walk over to the C9-C1 area, which also servers domestic flights. And if you arrive in a UA international and connect to a UA domestic, you can use the transfer CPB, which is generally faster, and when you walk up to the concourse, you are at C7. even though C&D interior is a failure, the passenger movement design is definitely a good one.
but connecting to *A partner like NH and LH is a different story.
