Silly? You didn't even respond to my whole post. You're a waste of time. You're just mad that you're wrong and Boston lost this.
Denver has the advantage where people are deciding what counts as mountain west based on whether or not it’s influenced by Denver. Rather than deciding whether or not Denver experts influence over the mountain west.
MT, UT, CO, NM, ID, WY are just vastly different and don’t share a common major city like New England does.
Which is inconvenient so they just kinda pretend ID, NM and UT don’t actually count.
And suddenly if you limit it to the front range, Denver Wins (even that’s debatably)
New England would do fine with NYC as the anchor city. They’re only 190 miles apart.
I dunno. There’s no Russian consulate in Boston, so I had to drive to NYC to get an entry visa. There were some people in line at the consulate who had biked there from Brooklyn. I was extremely jealous of these people having woken up very early in the morning and making the 5-6hr trek from Framingham to Wall Street.
Until I met a man in line who had come from ME for a visa for him and his wife. He got to the front of the line and found out that he didn’t have his wife’s documents properly notarized in order to apply for the visa in her place. He was told to come back another day.
Thanked my lucky stars that I only had to drive from eastern MA for the thing. If all of New England had to drive to NYC for traveling concerts, an international airport, official business, a major employment center, etc. it’d be pretty miserable for residents of any part except SW CT.

This is the reason the thread is so divided. New England is a small defined region. Denver and Atlanta are in regions that have contentious definitions. Some people are going off strict regional boundaries. Others are going off how far the city's influence reaches while using different region boundaries or strictly ignoring regions and just going by radius of influence.
I don’t understand what could be matters it’s not what is?
New England quite literally wouldn’t be a 6 state region if not for Boston. It’s entire existence is preticated on the Puritans landing in 1630 and everything that follows. That is just not true of the Deep South or Mountain West
