I am confused as to what "services" the majors provide that Soutwest does not?

no ticketing agreements- you can't buy multi airline itineraries in case you have to connect somewhere they don't fly. And they won't accept other airline tickets in case of flight interruption.
no baggage agreements -after you've bought the other airline ticket separately, you'll also have to go get your bags and recheck them..as WN won't do it for you.
no advance seating -the infamous "cattle call"
