In regards to the first benefit, QFF was changed "Fairer and Simpiler" enhancements mean there is no longer the 1000 points minimum.

Benefits that are only available to a small subset of members are hardly likely to be viewed as great benefits to the many who will never have such a benefir

Lifetime status as a benefit is diminished by only being available at Oneworld ruby (useless) and Oneworld sapphire (okay) levels. It would be much more worthwhile at Oneworld emerald level, and also then more comparable with other FFPs which have lifetime status offerings.

if the basis is that any benefit regardless of how few members are eligible for it ( as implied by the reply you were given), then I propose access to the Chairman's Lounge when travelling domestically as being the best benefit

None of those are really outstanding benefits - doesn't say much the for the program these days if a "best benefit" needs to be selected from that lot.
Sadly, I can't think of any better benefit to nominate ...

That is not what has been included in the polls for the half dozen or so that I've looked at. For example no "get an aircraft named after you" listed in United, yet they provided this benefit to one FFP member, FTer ua1flyer.
Indeed FFPs may not want people disclosing these extra special benefits.
