Unfortunately Edinburgh isn't a good geographical midpoint for those destinations so I doubt they will be expecting to pick up too many passengers on connections via Knock for now.
The possibility of going to Cardiff or Exeter via Edinburgh is unlikely to be too enticing when there are already direct flights to Bristol. CDG might have worked via Edinburgh but without connections to the AF network the new direct SNN route will be preferable to most.
Obviously Edinburgh is better positioned for connections to Kirkwall and Sumburgh but these are real niche markets that will generate very small passenger traffic. As I mentioned offshore oil and gas related business was probably behind flybe's thinking here.
But at least it shows that the airline are interested in incorporating Knock into their network and if a future direct flight was to be operated to somewhere like Cardiff it might be more suited to onward connection to airports on the UK south coast and European destinations such as CDG.
EDIT: flybe must be still in the process of updating their website, Southampton has now been added to the list as well. Wonder will there be any more, they do fly to a good few other destinations from Edinburgh.
