Overtourism is definitely a thing in several places in Greece, degrading the experience for tourists and reducing quality of life for locals. Instead of “improving” an airport to handle an increased number of tourists, perhaps the number of tourists should be limited?
I agree, but it depends on the place. Karpathos is far from being over-run with tourists. And the Airbnb places mentioned are off the beaten track. It should be a case of trying to persuade people who go to Mykonos and Santorini to try other places in Greece.
