If your home airport does not offer Pre, then the value of your Pre membership has just been halved.

The product has to be consistent and reliable for more people for it to reach the enrollment TSA wants.
My home airport is a small regional that does not have Pre-check. However, I get an "expidited card" that allows me to go through the crew metal detector with my shoes / belt on instead of the microwave scanner. To me, it is worth it!
