I think that was a very premature statement. Given that FB will from next year be completely segment-based, it is actually the *mileage run* that is dead. Segment runs are alive and well, though their make-up can now be varied to gain as many XP for as little money as possible. I.e., French domestic segments are likely out unless you happen to be exactly two points short.
