When Midwest orders new aircraft they will either be a a319 or a 737 and they will NOT take a row of seats out. Signiture service is a thing of the past. Airtran's CEO said it. The way that Boeing and Airbus are making planes also confirms it.
I understand your frustration but signiture service will eventually turn into first class on Midwest (unless airtran takes over them first).
Considering that Midwest is ADDING rows of 2x2 seating to the Saver Service planes, I would say that far from "killing" Signiture Service, YX is growing the routes that it is offered on!
