Welcome to Flyertalk FClassOrBust, and I would certainly encourage you to adopt a New Year's resolution to post here, thank you for your points and question.

The Samsung display seems a monumental waste of time, as far as I can tell, it won't be there much longer, I gather. The gin/wine/tea/macaroons marketing efforts do seem to go down well, in both Flounge and CCR, but it seems to me that if you allow them for say food or drink, why not allow them for other products too? A rubicon has been crossed. There are less attractive ways of boosting BA's income after all.
