Same here. And the LH Group network limits where you can go, too, to get HON miles.
Have to travel to a number of places where the LH Group airlines do not fly to, such as Australia or New Zealand or Chile etc., and while I have reached 300.000 M&M status miles in a year before, I would never come close to 300.000 HON miles. Gives me a chance to experience other products, though.
