If I booked something like JFK/LHR-HKG-DAD and was flying CX for the first time, I'd just be ... is this and fly someone like SQ or BR who manage to get me all the way through in a civilised manner next time.
What percentage of UO passengers are part of CX-UO itinerary, compare to single UO flight to destination? I bet it would be a small number. Therefore from CX management's point of view, they are taking the risk of alienating a small number of passengers, compare to providing cheaper price for most passengers due to lower cost of gate fees.
