Personally, not too much vs. the savings on YQ
But we FT'er are geeks, who will detour via IST for its lounge, or Layover (<24h) in as many cities as we can (oh, let's stop in JFK and BRU for a YYZ-JFK-BRU-CDG routing)

However, I think MOST of the carriers/routes above do NOT add much extra time
e.g. ZRH-YYZ vs. ZRH-YUL-YYZ isn't that bad

Obviously everyone makes difference decisions using various criteria - TIME, MONEY, AVAILABILITY, PREFERENCE, etc...

I am merely helping most people to save the MONEY part
If there are people who wants to pay AC/LH/OS $1000 extra to save a few hours, no comments for me
