That is another risk of flying NW, they tend to cancel flights more often than TG !
if you was re-accomodated, you probably flew TG C and then not on a 747 which is not considerred here (only TG 747 F is taken into consideration).
The same goes for BKK-SIN-BKK where TG only flies C/Y configuration.
I would agree that MH (if in F) is beter than NW as TG is. You cannot fly MH on * mileage.
