Honestly, there are many here who fly much more than I do.
I guess my apathy towards BA F came only from the fact that I had multiple BA F longhauls crammed in a short period. And some of the shortcomings (non-AVOD or missing washbags) just got magnified. Plus BA managed to delay my checked bag on one trip and break it on another! Still chasing the claim for that a month later.
Honestly though, BA F is a great product, but one must remember that BA's current F product is about 10 years old when comparing it with the new F suites of 9W/EK etc. Plus BA's F pricing more often than not reflects this fact. I usually pay atleast 25% less for BA F as opposed to what I would for LH/AF etc on my routes. And I'd choose BA crew over 9W every single time.
