Firstly, a declaration of interest, iten is my friend and we always have heated discussions on JL vs CX as we are staunch supporters of the respective airline and programs, online and offline.
As for "JL OW Sapphire being a nobody on CX", that would be an overstatement as airline alliances are based on mutual recognition. I do agree there should be priority preference with the airline's own in-house Frequent Flyers, then extend the recognition to other aliiance members FFs.
As for RTWs being "cheap", you have offended I think 70% of the population here in FT my friend, as lots of FTers reach their premier status thru mileage runs and RTWs.
