Who knows (I didn't realise NI APD was different already!) but I think with the direct US, UA, QR, EK and VS flights it could be useful anyway as there are already a number of options to skip LHR, even if you want to stick with OW.
I have never flown out of NCL and I don't think of it as very easy to get to (I am EDI based) so I assume the same is true in reverse, but as you say if you are talking about a once a year holiday then it might make all the difference. Is NCL a leisure-heavy airport?
