Opening up PL access to PS routes would be a mistake. The EWR PL has already trended toward UC's zoo like atmosphere, in particular before the evening bank of INTL departures. EWR runs up to something around 28-30 flights to LAX and SFO daily, and with widebody J capacity up to 50, that's going to be crazy in the PL.
