If you lived in, for example, Hastings, which airport would you prefer
to go to? Obviously Gatwick, yet Hastings is neither near Victoria or a
Thameslink station.

There are modes of transport other than trains. Luton and Stansted
are mainly reached by car and taxi, and serve a wide area of the Home
Counties and East Anglia as such. Indeed Luton is to a fairly
significant extent a "South Midlands and Home Counties Airport"
rather than a London one.

It's not a convenient airport to reach from Cambridge. It might be if there
was better public transport between there and Hitchin.
