I think you were very lucky for the payout considering that ATC Restrictions and Weather played a big part in the crew running out of hours.
Rather than "Crew ran out of hours", I would argue that BA failed to scheduled sufficient crew on standby. ATC restrictions and weather are not uncommon in London airspace so delays as a consequence are perfectly foreseeable.
