Again, I'm not disputing the overall concept. I'm stating that it won't work here.
I don't think you necessarily need lie-flats in this market (though ironically DFW-MCO is coming off of three weeks of 4 x 777 service), but there is a middle-ground somewhere between an Oasis 737 and a regional SQ 781. And let's not forget there are plenty of other markets that see Oasis aircraft, it's not as though they're dedicated to two hour leisure routes.
