UA caters to affluent clientele. Affluent people tend to be -- regardless of political leanings -- NIMBYs. The likes of EWR, SFO, LAX, and ORD (in addition to a host of destination airports) would not be able to entertain greatly expanded late night flights for more than a few days before lawsuits and court injunctions scuttle the idea.
