The excess fee is only $30 / $20 so not exactly a major issue I would suggest; given that QF now offers discounts for buying in advance, I am surprised if they are not actually enforcing it
Be surprised -- there doesn't appear to be enforcement. I have now completed two business domestic flights on tickets issued prior to the change in baggage rules. In both cases, during checkin the agents didn't charge for an "extra" bag, or even indicate in any way that they thought it was extra. So, at least based on my experience, I have to conclude that in practice the new baggage rules are being applied to all business domestic travelers, regardless of when the tickets were purchased.
