My point is: your original post was a very Dublin-centric view.

You then seemed to suggest that if moving was going to happen, it would only be the Dublin (and Belfast?) route, on the basis that BA wasn't sufficiently interested in connecting traffic from ORK/SNN given that they don't serve them. [Or maybe your point was that they wouldn't even want to have DI's DUB route in T5, given that they have their own flights to DUB now. It's not very clear to me].

But any decision would never be BA alone's to make so the reference to BA seemed irrelevant to me; I'm not sure EI would want to split their operation at LHR, and there clearly isn't room at T5 for all of EI.
