Don't worry : no harm received, no harm intended.
This said, it's quite difficult to "squeeze the juice out" with EK.
Usually, the more you ask, the less you get, and this is probably true as EK gets bigger.
I'm satisfied with the advantages I've listed, though I don't benefit from / use all of them.
Yes,
Kant1979, Plats fly like mad (even in FCL). Most often out of (professional) necessity.
When flying at least 4 LH legs per month - EVERY month, and not counting non-EK trips - priority boarding etc and lounge are no more a luxury. That's a matter of survival. That's a way to minimize unproductive time, to minimize impact on health, to minimize loss of family time ... Nothing to really envy ...
