That's a tempting argument against expansion (others are available ), but it's actually a bit of a red herring.

I've never quite understood the "ban transfer traffic" preoccupation of campaigners.

Apart from the fact that it's a tad impractical to frog-march every arriving passenger to the Tube to make sure they don't board another departing flight, many routes from LHR are only viable by virtue of carrying transfer traffic.
