Given that DPS used to be CX, I'd have thought that CX would aim to take that one back over. Then again, if deemed "leisure" and hence for UO, then I can see a lot of custom lost. Unless UO ups its game and basically becomes KA v2.0.
In my case, I fly DAC quite a bit and the overnight return was bad enough. But if it becomes LCC (i.e. UO) on top of that, I'd likely fly via BKK or even KUL in future.
That then has a knock-on effect, as my MP Status could be in jeopardy. Which by extension makes me less likely to pay extra $$$ to fly CX if I no longer get lounge access, etc
