From a practical standpoint, west flow is very slightly downhill (about a .2% gradient) for all the runways. I don't imagine this affects airline's performance calculations much since it is such a small change though. In LAS, the gradient is right about 1.0% it looks like, far more significant for performance calculations, and changing to the 7s for departures would be a big help.
For PHX, the little gradient combined with the west winds in the afternoon though, on days where the density altitude climbs to 5 or 6,000 feet, every little bit helps. It really sucks when the airlines start going weight restricted.
I would think too you would get a few more requests for 26 departures given the extra 1189' she has. Again, not much, but better than nothing.
