Display prices in a grid on BA?

I've been planning some summer holiday flights on the BA site. What I've found is that you get a few days of the outbound prices displayed and a few days of the return flight prices displayed. If you click on an outbound date, it updates the return date prices.

This is confusing because I choose a cheap outbound price and can see that my return date would also be a fairly cheap price on the screen. I then click on the outbound date and find that the return date price goes up!

What's the point of displaying a cheap 'click-bait' outbound price if the return price then goes up making the overall price a lot more than you saw on the screen originally?

Perhaps there's another part of the BA site where this doesn't happen?

Anyway, is there a way that I can see a grid like Emirates shows where the X- and Y-axis represents the outbound and return dates and you can clearly see the overall price of the ticket for specific outbound and return dates?
