The reality is demand is the problem
The 21:00 to Cork is near empty Mon-Thurs, the 19:00 is hardly busy beyond Portlaoise. The 22:20 Heuston Portlaoise is principally an empty movement to depot which happens to fill a gap for a service.
The challenge is to get to Athlone, Mullingar and Arklow leaving at 9pm where there is a reasonable demand but without the cost of going the whole way
