Spending an hour taxiing isn't a deterrent for you?

Not as much as a hundred-dollar landing fee. Especially when it's only
"maybe" I'll have a long taxi, and "certainly" I'll pay $100 to land.

"Likely not to" and "banned" are two completely different things.

Correct. And "effectively banned" is different from "banned". I think
the OP was using "effectively banned" to mean "so dissuaided that most
spam cans avoid the airport". I find this usage to be accurately
descriptive and helps make his point.

Your usage ("a price at which light GA aircraft would =never= use") is
another reasonable definition, and makes your (different) point.
Arguing whether "(effectively) banned" is the correct word to use is a
silly argument about words, not an argument about the substance of the
post, which is the high degree of discouragement these fees apply to
spam can pilots wishing to fly into a major city served (only) by a
giant hub with high landing fees.

It's similar to Signature's effect on the market, and the effect of
charging for weather briefings.
