BA is the odd one out here.

That said I understand why the policy is the way it is.
I realise that BA might be the odd one out, but given that it is marketed as HBO, I do not understand comments such as:

There's no trickery involved, they're not hiding anything, nor stripping it away. The difference between the HBO fare and the normal is usually fairly small anyway.
