I fail to understand the obsession with denigrating Heathrow on this group, I
assume it is because it is in the south.

No, it's because it's a very poor airport by most criteria I can think
of. *(I live in the south, so I don't quite see why I would denigrate
it on that basis).

It has a lot of destinations, and quite a few very cheap flights. But
ergonomically it's a pit (even T5, but for different reasons).

Is T5 really a "pit"? I wonder if you mean that demi-literally, what
with the apparent requirement to go down and up lots...
