Ha, this is the basic truth.

I recently looked for 2 R/Ts to WAW from DFW. The DFW-LHR-WAW was $7K in J. I looked 100 miles east at my old hometown airport, tiny little TYR. Found a TYR-DFW-LHR-WAW for $2900. "Fleecing" is definitely an accurate description. Being in a frothy market in DFW (for the time being, anyway) is another.
