If so, that would rather hole my theory below the waterline....

I just did a little messing about on ITA for an EDI-LHR-JFK flight Dec 27 to Dec 30th, arbitrary dates but just so people can recreate.

When I select T class for WTP, the EDI-LHR books into K as expected.

When I select E class for WTP, then generally the EDI-LHR books into Y, while the LHR-EDI return books into R

When I select E class for WTP, but force the BA1459 for EDI-LHR being the only one that day with any R avail left, then it too books into R.

When I select W class for WTP then both EDI-LHR legs book into D (and the price becomes rather eye watering)

So from a very quick play, it does seem to be behaving according to the rules of the promotion, but it could well be something else......
