What I have been able to check for the last half a dozen years or so is that I have not in that time had an O class ZA domestic that did not earn frequent flyer miles, with BA or QF (to which I have often credited these occasional single sectors if paid in cash).
Thank you for checking your history. I suspected as much that it's not enforced.
