And while you have seen "far better deals on other airlines", those other airlines are generally garbage airlines (like BA, AA, UA etc...).
Air France La Première is the best First Class in the world and that's a good deal.
It's all about opportunity-cost SFO777 (as I am sure you know)! BA, AA, UA might be garbage, but do 7-8 hours in a nicer plane with marginally better F&B warrant 2-3k more? That's a personal decision, of course - but I suspect many people would rather spend the saved money on a real meal at a 3 Michelin stars restaurant and a couple nights at the Four Seasons instead.
