And I think my reply would be that if BA had organised themselves a bit better in respect of the engineering aspect, by any reasonable measure (let alone all) BA would have prevented such a long delay.

This has the hallmark of "our answer will not change", so I would suggest that those affected ask for confirmation of that and go off to CEDR. I'm surprised how quick BA has responded (and replied a second time) on this.
