you can split the PNR. Just pay slightly more miles for the individual segment.

CX can allow changes as they charge based on the distance I think. SQ is based on point to point. So it cost the same miles to fly from JFK-SIN and JFK-DPS.
How would an agent split off SIN-DPS from JFK-(FRA)-SIN?

They could drop the SIN-DPS and convert to the direct JFK-SIN as it has award availability and all that would be done as a change to current booking and miles would remain the same as SIN & DPS are in the same zone. Then OP could book a separate SIN-DPS. Is that what you mean?

That would be same as just booking JFK-SIN separately and cancelling existing booking. One can drop the JFK-FRA-SIN and isolate (retain) the SIN-DPS, but this is an award change and NO miles would be refunded so one expensive DPS flight.

Overall not worth it at all in my book for an aircraft change (Biz seat is different between A388 and 77W), but up to the OP.
