No, I'm not going to try to prove or disprove an aphorism; that would be largely, if not entirely pointless. People routinely value the same offering differently - that's what the concept of differential utility tries to address - and they spend their money the way they want, on what they want, with whom they want, when they want.
Just because I choose say a VA flight while someone else chooses say JQ, ZL or, heaven forbid, QF, does not mean that their choice is wrong or that their decision making process is flawed (and it is probably somewhere between conceited to condescending to suggest so).
