Have all the instances of denied boarding by CX involved flights to the US? If so, could be a feature of the "enhanced" US security measures.

I too have flown CX recently without middle name on ticket. Last flight was Oct 26. However, the flight was part of an AAward, ticketed at the beginning of the year.
Yesterday, booking another CX flight via an AAward, I was asked for middle name.
This makes me wonder if only more recent booking require the middle name, and if I need to check up on a CX flight I have Dec 15, that was booked in April, that doesn't have my middle name.
I booked an Avios ticket on November 19 without a middle name. So while AA may be cracking down, it seems that BA is not. Flight is BKK-SIN middle of January.
