So now Ac is going to try it with right sized A/C....let the game begin.

Right sized aircraft. Uh huh....50 seat lawn darts vs the 70 seat 146's or the 50 seat Dash 8's Both had / have 25 cent casm. They failed miserably before, they'll fail miserably again. What's changed? Nothing.
Have you ever wondered why nobody is ever concerned when a legacy airline decides to take SWA on with CRJ's, indeed anything under 120 seats? It is a given the efforts will fail. No one has ever knocked LUV off a route with the lawn darts.
The casm delta between ACE and WJ is at least as high, if not higher than the casm delat between LUV and the legacy carriers. It's stunning that ACE continues to try to play the game when it has failed every single time everywhere on the planet. RJ's vs a low cost carrier. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
You obviously know nothing about the shopping patterns of folks in YZF. When they head south, they load up on goodies that are either unavailable, or cost a fortune in the north.
They will be in for a rude awakening when the RJ's can't take a full load of goodies back home. Wrong aircraft on the wrong route.
