Wet Runway = can't LAHSO with a wet runway...another parallel piece of concrete or two could solve that problem
Low Ceilings = can't conduct converging approaches after losing the break away points due to low ceilings/vis...another parallel piece of concrete or two could solve that problem
Your only valid point is about weather...and yep, if there is a level 6 parked on your airport no amount of additional concrete will increase your arrival rate.
What is your point 
The NAS doesn’t need more runways...or there aren’t any delays due to lack of runways

Let me see if I understand your theorem - you state that if every major airport/major hub had an extra runway or 2, there would no longer be delays in the current ATC system, unless level 6 weather "parked" at your airport
