The lowest "practical" cost ticket ....
Similarly, some organisations (govermnent or private) may insist on their staff having "fully flexible" tickets. But commonly these organisations have contracts with QF (or anyone else) which provide those tickets at significantly lower proces than the general public can ever get the them - about 40% lower than the retail prices IIRC for one example I know with booking into "Y". So it may only be the mug public that ever pays full price if they want ultimate flexibility (or they are possibly forced to buying a "fully flexible" ticket if its a "walk up" purchase at the airport on day of travel).
