Actually I avoid booking combinations of flights in a single itinerary with BAEC for several reasons: better flexibility (I can cancel or change just one flight without affecting another) and if I fly via Hong Kong, I usually prefer having a day there.

But yeah, in certain instances I have noticed this weird problem with Iberia and perhaps BAEC. As I remember, it was when I looked for flights between Hong Kong and Jakarta. Never had problems booking HKG–TPE, HKG–BKK or HKG–MNL though.
I also typically use Avios to book flights from Taiwan to Japan or Korea.
