And I know quite some expats based in TYO, PEK, SHA etc. that think the same way. And they would compete better with AY in this market. But if the price goes up as a result, they would loose some non FF tourist traffic I'm sure.

You win some you loose some I guess!
I'm under the impression, that it is the FFP's that decide how many points they fork out for other *A flights.

In your case it'd be OZ deciding, which booking classes on SK earn how much in their FFP
