It is not more convenient to get from central London to Heathrow than it is to get from Midtown Manhattan to JFK. The entire premise to his argument is absurd, and I know because I have personally taken the trains to/from JFK, EWR, Heathrow, and Charles de Gaulle, many times. He clearly doesn't know what he's talking about and it just picking up talking points he's read online about lack of rail connectivity to LGA and attributing it to JFK and EWR.
