True, fuel cost would be the same per flight, but maybe Corkyskog is getting at the airline still coming out ahead with more seats since they would sell more tickets.
Overall that would mean less flights needed to move the same number of people so it arguably does reduce fuel cost in a sense.
(This assumes that people physically take up less space as they lose weight, which, I guess for dimensions like legroom, maybe isn’t the case)
10 20lb chunks is 200lbs. 20 10lb chunks is 200 lbs. ???

The devil is always in the details. Good analysis.
