Ive flown LX and LH F and while there is no doubt the food and bev was obv a step up, ultimately it makes very little difference to the inflight experience

Actually a bit of caviar would be nice!
But that's the point, LH/LX and AF first are all more expensive, have more exclusive service and better food and wine. You need to be elites in their respective programmes to either book in the first place, or get expanded availability. This is a good compromise as it allows investment to go into the product and rewards those genuinely frequent fliers with expanded access, as opposed to the credit card junkies.
