If I booked CX (which has very limited availability), the taxes are only $167.90 per person, of which $165.40. Has it always been like that?

I may be dreaming but I only noticed the high JL taxes today and I've been searching these flights since two weeks ago.
Could this perhaps be the miscalculation of taxes/fees on award travel that's been happening recently?

There's a thread here in these forums, but I'm too lazy to look it up.
