To my big surprise, IB+ promises 10,205 miles for HKG-LHR on BA in I. The same for LHR-HKG.

I don't hold any status at IB+. I am not even a member of that program. Does anybody have an explanation how they reach that number?
Most airlines will display this as a way of enticing you to join their program. Check if there is a promotion for extra avios ongoing for the extra 20% IB is displaying.
