We have a “south east hub” IAD. IAD is ideally positioned for connecting North-South connecting flow on the East coast. We have another “south east hub” IAH. IAH is positioned to connect Florida and the south to the west and central US.
Our problem isn’t where our hubs are it’s how we run them.

We have a 375 flights a day out of DEN, WN has 190, F9 has about 70.
I once flew for Cape Air. They moved into SJU and started flying the same places as American. 9K set their prices one dollar higher than AA's, to indicate they were not there to compete, but to catch the overflow traffic. Southwest competes with us in DEN, in ATL they catch DL's overflow.
