Every programme has its quirks. Buying QF coded EK was always a bit more expensive than direct with EK, I think LA is as well. Paid CX PE and earn was same as regular economy QF
Not a major fan of QF taxes/fees on redemptions either. NZ is really good in that dept although there's the earn of APD via flying. I think I had an SQ flight that didn't earn much to NZ but I just credit SQ to SQ now.
Maybe I'm a pessimist but I expect all loyalty programs to go downhill. Seems to be the trend.
