They are the definition of LCC. I don’t know why people expect full service on them when paying dirt cheap fares. You pay what you get. At least they aren’t easyJet or Ryanair.
I agree in part with your points.

however, I have in the past flown to RMQ and DAD. Considered CNX although never went. I believe these are all examples of routes that KA used to fly, and hence we did get J class, as well as our lounge and elite benefits. I don’t mind the lack of J anymore so much as the rest.

I’m not sure the right answer but pointing out, this argument isn’t entirely fair since we had routes before where we have clearly been downgraded.
