Shared gate penalty fee

[POTKC]

OK, look: When I lease a shared gate somewhere, I lease ten of them straight away, just so I'll never have to worry about having not enough gates somewhere. Since it's paid per-use, I can have two, three, etcetera planes turnaround at one airport at the same time and not suffer reputation loss. Getting penalized for not regularly using those extra gates would be stupid, especially as not using them has no negative effects on me, the airport, or any other airline because they are shared gates, ie I am not blocking off gates and then leaving them empty for no reason.
