Will be a great thing for southwest, unfortunately love field is limited in gate space so the expansion can only be so much

More about efficiency of service than expansion. SWA will cut out some marginal destinations that have been kept for Wright purposes and will now fly direct. Some airports like Lubbock probably will go by the wayside.
When Denver International opened Stapleton Airoprt was closed and everything literally drove over to the new airport in convoy, SWA couldn't compete on a more favorable footing, which made the majors happy, kept gate fees high and the old airport was auctioned off to developers.

Not sure how accurate that is. Have you ever walked down the "unused side" to the Delta gates? They could easily expand that.
