Your argument remains based on the notion that the flights were specifically marketed as non-stop and not subject to change, which I have seen no evidence of.
Luckily for Transat the morals of nonstop vs direct are in fact meaningless to most people and under no circumstance have they "lost" given that the most important thing is cheap fares; people will continue to book Transat regardless of this incident.
You have stretched a tech stop to possible corners being cut in aircraft maintenance. Nowhere near enough people are going to do that for it to matter.
