I quite agree... recent States of Guernsey study stated the obvious and showed that high frequency, fewer seats is essential for such islands to remain competitive in terms of good links. easyJet is a lovely idea but they are contrained by demand to IOM and also slots available at LGW. Having Dash 8s and Embraer 175s on key routes to London, Liverpool and Manchester seems a better idea than flooding the market with a glut A319 seats, or just having fewer frequencies.
