Home to hotel doors would be better for most, since you'd leave when you wanted and not when the not particularly regular scheduled service was due to depart. On board internet connectivity has also made the idea that waking hours spent in a first class seat must be "wasted" seem rather archaic

I actually find long flights are a good time to catch up on things that don't require me to be online. (Whether work-related or not.)

Not to mention that small regional airports can often be significantly closer to your destination. General aviation for the masses would be a game-changer.
