And QF miles don't expire so there is an incentive to save them even if the flow of miles is slow.

Not always the case.
There are only 3 ways to earn Asia Miles in Canada, but I still try and collect then (mainly I get them from Petro Canada. I get more Asia Miles in Canada from gas than in HK and gas is more than $14/L in HK now!!!)
