Banning flights from Red List countries was a silly move in my view - allowing flights to have continued would mean arrivals could be more easily controlled for all the obvious reasons cited above if you believe there's a need to control them in this manner ( not sure I really do, but that's a different story !)
Even with direct flights, I suspect many of those currently transiting or planning to transit through a green country would continue to do so as there would be perception it would be easier to get into the UK, paperwork checked less vigorously etc
