I agree mainline dont wish to expand into the regions but there is the small matter of the Edi//lcy routes, and lcy itself. BACON have the aircraft that are best suited to the route the RJ, now i know it has its faults but it is at present what is required So if Big BA want to continue or expand the LCY idea then maybe the mainlining of EDI might be the easiest option but then again the INV idea could hold water!!
