thanks.
There were also tweets saying one couldn't transfer but obviously those aren't really authoritative

A monthly check will be performed of the expiry of the total Avios balance in the account of members who have not made any movement to earn or use Avios in 36 months. Forthese purposes, Avios transfers carried out between the programmes BA Executive Club, the Avios Programme (in the UK), the Iberia Plus Programme and any other programme which may use Avios as currency are not considered movements as they do not involve collection or redemption.
Yes and I wouldn't expect it to count as redmeptred but obviously that interpretation is where the next fight will lie
