BA do differentiate - it's Club Europe or Club World depending on the flight, but the CE cabin is as you imply, nothing more than economy with an empty seat between you and the next person and a "bit" more food. CW is a lot better but being overtaken all the time. There's no F class intra Europe unless perhaps you get a long haul that stops en route but not sure if that happens any more.
