But I like gate 4... (ok, I’m kidding).

Right. This makes perfect sense, since on average right now we only have a max of two flights per day on a widebody, neither of which requires space before 1400. Also, depending on the 767 model in use, dual jetbridge boarding might not be necessary.
I got confused since they keep saying they’re adding 9 gates, so that, for some reason, just equalled “there are only 9 gates in the extension” in my head.
