Eindhoven is a loco and holiday charter airport, pretty much people fly from Eindhoven to take a nice holiday and not to travel to Eindhovem, not even KLM are interested in serving it, roll on Costa del Doncaster!
KLM focuses on their bread and butter - Amsterdam. Similar to why BA doesn't fly to Birmingham or Stansted for example.

Wizz also serves Eindhoven with a couple of dozen routes already which makes it easier for them to fly there.

I think the Canary routes are a great move, although I'm not too sure EIN will be a big hit. I don't think there's many VFR or business pax in either direction (unless I'm missing something) and I agree that Amsterdam city itself is quite far (and expensive to get there from Eindhoven airport).
