The reason for the fact that an aeroplane designed for long distances cannot simply be used for short haul flights at higher frequencies is that
in that case some fuel tanks remain empty during the whole flight, which stresses the aeroplane's structure in an unacceptable way

the lifetime of the fatigue sensitive parts has been based on a determined load spectrum
the procedures and checklists for this kind of aeroplanes will take too much time
