The fare difference is very little, but a saving is a saving where you can exploit it.
As a family three of us tend to travel on two cases. While this can be beneficial on the "budget" airlines the maths doesn't tend to work on BA.
I'd suggest that this is because their HBO fares aren't cheap enough. BA may argue it's fe cause their "proper" fares are good value.
