Why Coastal Command was called the Cinderella service

Was the description of Coastal Command as the Cinderella service accurate?

Yes. It lacked a strong service patron and was repeatedly pushed behind other air-power priorities.

A. V. Alexander called Coastal Command the Cinderella service, an apt label for a command with no equivalent of the Royal Navy's sustained political fight for the Fleet Air Arm. The interwar pattern resembles later British gaps in maritime patrol and airborne early warning, though an air force has reasons to prioritize harder-to-expand fast-jet fleets. Nominal responsibility mattered less when no powerful institution fought for the capability.
