It really was the media that took this low cost carrier/ new airline and ran with it as click bait

SeanM1997 pointed this out on Twitter, but after checking i can see that the following routes adopt LHR flight numbers from W22 onwards:
Algiers, Funchal, Jersey, Naples, Porto, Tirana
This implies they are to remain at Heathrow permanently, and in my opinion they are premium destinations with a fair amount of connections. There are likely to be more, but it is hard to tell as many routes are summer seasonal.

Is callsign directly linked to AOC or operating company?

Quite right, but survives at Heathrow as any towing BA aircraft uses "BeaLine xyz" as the callsign. Only LHR mind, not LGW/GLA/CWL Engineering.

Absolutely right. Teams calls are too formal and time limited. If you are there - it’s a whole different experience plus the social side. My team and I are back travelling. Those that don’t will miss out in the longer term.
