I don't see any mention of free-seating, where people are not assigned seat numbers in advance. As this is the method which the cheapest airlines appear to use, where time/cost pressure is at a maximum, I suspect that it does well in practice so I'm disappointed that the author did not consider it.



Southwest captured an entire industry. This was one of the major reasons. That's the difference between "research" and "practice".
