Hmmm, there are some contentious claims there.
As a plat cardholder for rather longer, I know that BA do NOT 'regularly' have 100% bonus offers. In my 17 years, that happened just once in the UK AFAIR, so 42,000 bonus miles are just that, not 84,000 (unless there's another offer in the pipeline).

Also, I assume if I get this bonus, it's instead of a regular sign-up bonus, right?
Or is there a way to get the 50k + additional bonuses?
Yes, you can still get approved for the Amex Platinum even if you have the PRG or other Amex cards. I already had the PRG card before acquiring the Platinum.
The 50K is a better bonus sign up. No, you cannot combine the 50K with another, it is one or the other. You can choose the less than ideal standard sign up if you want but I dont know why you would?
