When I booked a flight last week from IAD-DOH-SGN in promo business, it gave the booking class as Business (I) at the page before you pay. I'm assuming if it was one of the new R fares, it would say Business (R) at the confirmation page. My e-ticket says the booking code is (I) so everything matches so far.

If you go try to make a dummy booking, you will see the same thing. The site will give you the booking class before you get to the purchase screen.

Now, if QR is sneaking in "R" class tickets when the site says "I" then you have a valid point, but I don't think that's the case.
