I for one would LOVE to see what an ME3 carrier could do with, say, American Airlines.
Depends. Is that an ME3 carrier on its own, or an ME3 carrier with an unlimited government subsidy to keep it afloat no matter how much money it loses? Because the latter is what really exists -- those airlines aren't run as for-profit businesses, they're run as vanity projects by the backing governments.

If some Emirati government wants to subsidize my domestic travel within the US, they should feel very free to do so! I'll take the better service and cheaper prices in a heartbeat.
