Is it worse that at least four major airlines have detected this problem, or, is it worse that this seems to suggest that there may be significantly higher numbers of minor airlines that have discovered this? The article itself didn't really seem to clarify on specifics, but instead outlined towards the end which other airlines have discovered the same problem.
