One thing to note too in that case is that BA's KUL service unlike KL's (which relied on both point-to-point and connections) mostly relied on just almost purely point-to-point traffic between KUL and LHR because of LHR's too-far-west position resulting in a backtrack to almost every EU destination except Ireland.
