I'm not really sure whether QR Gold is easier to get than BA Silver. It depends on your travel patterns.
However I do know that you will earn far fewer redeemable miles when crediting BA flights to QR and that you will need far more miles and taxes for award flights.
So if you don't care at all about actually spending miles usefully, you can study QR Privilege Club further.
