Few doubt that WW would have closed many of Norwegians 787 routes, I have no idea about how successful these routes were, but one thing was clear is that a lot of BA traffic was bleeding across to Norwegian, some will have been geographical in choosing LGW over LHR, the flights were better value for money and the product was considered to be positive and I've flow on both.

WW would have closed the routes to protect its own margins, just as it tried to kill off Laker and Virgin.

Norwegian still seem intent on starting up LH again from LGW and yet i don't know one person who seriously sees how that can be achieved.
