You present great alternatives, but few will actually explore them, its much easier to stick with what you know.
I think this is a bit uncalled for. Many of us rationally explored the options (I even did math on FT). Ultimately, the value that AC provides is still marginally more than WS. (those of us stuck in domestic travel). In that case, an emotional answer is "F U AC, i'm going to WS". A logical answer is if Company A is still giving me more value than Company B, then i'll go with Company A. - something I suspect most of us have logically tried to calculate.
