Gift redemptions? Any suggestions?

Upgrade redemptions? Maybe yes on the LHR route, maybe YYR also. Premium availability on SYD/MEL (and I venture to say YVR too) is meaningless.

I think there's a bit of each to their own, as I find award availability meaningful when Aus economy tickets get pricey but someone has to fly...
