I've done JAX-IAH a few times on UAX and that is also miserable when headwinds are in play, but nothing compared to some of the really bad ones being discussed here.
At least CLT and RDU still have flights to IAH, they dropped GSO-IAH in 2012

As you said though, DL is vastly superior to UA in the Southeast. Hell, even US bests them significantly.
