Heathrow and CDG don't have packs of unlicensed taxi drivers hassling
you. They don't have airport staff who ask for bribes to do their
jobs. You don't have to worry about your checked bags being opened
and looted. They don't have endless delays for no reason. And there
are some stores and some minimal places to eat or get a drink if
you're stuck there for a couple hours. Fly into Guadalajara or Seoul-
Kimpo or almost any Indian or African airport and get back to us.
