This has serious implications on job security.
If virgin is offering tickets at the right price and start/end points those old dinosaurs won’t care and will still book tickets.
I think you’ll find the vast majority of pax won’t give a sh1t so long as they are served professionally by the crew taking care of them and get to their destination relatively on time.
There will be a few people screaming about this, but the silent majority just want to get on with their lives and holidays/flights…
