It may well kill Priority Mail, period. Their attempt to maximise revenue
may move them to a far different place on the demand curve (as in, far less
demand!) meaning they get less revenue after all. I'm happy to overpay on
short distances and small packages in exchange for the convenience of not
having to deal with multiple zones. YMMV of course.
