It tells us that price sensitivity curve also interacts with risk sensitivity; that is all. It's similar to saying if I offered a $5 fare on SYD-MEL but it was on an unmaintained 50 year old 727, would anyone buy a seat? Virtually non-existent marketing except doomsday whinging from
JS doesn't help.
