I know you didn't say that (I mistakenly commented on something from someone elses post in my answer to you). Also, read post #338 (if you haven't already), wherein I specify my views on the matter further.
Finally, I think you might be underestimating peoples knowledge levels, and I especially think you underestimate the power of social media (which will be even more powerful in the future).

I highly doubt I'm underestimating knowledge levels. Moist people just aren't interested in this stuff. Most passengers on BA for example don't even bother to collect airmiles - despite a return to New York providing an almost free flight to Europe. Flyertalk isn't remotely representative of the general public - I think the vast amounts of knowledge on this site has clouded your judgement over what the average person would know. Most people I know didn't even know Norwegian existed when I mentioned I was flying them. And a few who did know them were surprised they flew anywhere other than Norway! These are the types of people who are going to use such a service (load up skyscanner and go for the cheapest option).
As to post 338, I don't live in Scandinavia so have no reason to dispute that. However, although for obvious reasons Scandinavia is their core market at the moment, they are rapidly expanding to become a pan-European airline like Ryanair or Easy jet. Even if their Scandinavian market is decimated (which I don't believe will happen anyway), they still have the rest of Europe.
