Which is why SOU would be no good with similar timed schedules as It can NEVER extend past 2300, not even for a minute so just a few minutes delay would render over 80% of those flights as non-entities. Most of those would need to be established by 2245-2250 to stand any chance of being accepted.
End result would mean regular diversions, particularly in the peak season.
