There is no evidence (yet) that baseline award pricing is changing. You also said in another thread (incorrectly) predicting award changes on December 5th: "Well here come the 500k+ one way redemptions just like AA has, airlines can’t help but move to the 1cpm thinking."
I see no evidence of baseline award level changes at this point. Inflation will obviously change that over time. If Mileage Plan introduces additional partner dynamic pricing similar to Aer Lingus and Qatar, it doesn't mean the baseline pricing is changing. I have redeemed multiple Qatar and Aer Lingus business class awards at the lowest levels.
