Seems like it's gonna be easier to qualify
But number of SWUs will be halved (what's the value of SWUs to AA members on CX anyway?)
Redemption table not changed at this stage
Unless one qualifies for AA status by mainly flying BA flights in deep discount economy.
Not to mention RDM changes could leave me worse off than just buying V class on CX.
