I think you misread my comment about super hubs. Hubs are necessary super hubs are not.

Read your own statement, you have to allow bunch of RJs/NBs from several places to fill a WB/super jumbo at a hub/super hub.

So there is no scenario where a super hub can operate only VLAs.

LHR A380 movements are somewhere between 1%-3% of total traffic. I haven't seen DXB VLA movement numbers, but sure it will be in single digits. ORD haven't even started A380 service and AFAIK ATL has no active A380 service.
