The point is many other US airlines have cut enough flights to match staffing. Delta hasn't.
Your post said "flights cancelled", not "percentage of flights cancelled".
And it was the data for one day, which isn't particularly interesting from a comparison perspective.
You could choose a different day and the data might be different. The region matters, as weather causes flight cancellations, unless you've only presented data for one particular cause. As far as I can tell, you haven't normalized for types of equipment, either.
It may well be that your conclusion is correct, but it's not apparent from what you presented here.
