I suppose the return would allow UK-based travelers to have a full day in NYC, but probably still sitting around JFK for a few hours which unless I had lounge access I would not fancy.
VS25 is also great for London-based travellers to have a largely full day at work, get to New York, have a full-night's rest on the ground before going about the next day - must admit I've done it with that intention before.
