Just flew BE a few days ago and was credited BOTH 50% RDM & EQM. Checked by adding up all my flight miles for my qualification period and it matched up exactly. Super happy about this, although I'm guessing it's due to OZ's software incompetence. Funny thing is this was the quickest a flight has ever credited to my account. Took just 2 days, when it's usually near a week.

But this certainly changes the proposition of BE for me if it's for example a $40 spread below normal Y. Although I've heard UA has much scaled down BE, as they've found it to be a failure, which I'm glad for. The spreads between normal Y and BE do seem to have really shrunk last I checked.
