Constantly crowded is probably less of a concern for DL, but the constant lines at certain locations are definitely an issue. Though perhaps the real solution for those locations is more capacity.
But Amex is clearly looking to cut costs (look at all the very recent limits to sign up bonuses), so I can see them having had a say in these changes.
