Yes so short haul+ TPs only exist on BA for exUK routes, and the only exception is the UK-HEL routes where AY also credits as 80 TPs in J. I believe that exception is due to the joint business agreement between AY and BA on the UK-HEL routes.

Anywhere else it is either 40 up to 2000 miles, then 140 above.

It's a bit of a mixed bag between 1000-1150. It is certainly true to say that everything above 1150 is short haul+ but that isn't the threshold as there isn't a clear threshold . These are all the routes from 1000 to 1200.
