That's the big differentiator for me. I'm looking to book a trip to NZ and the RDMs and LPs go from just over 13k to 5k (I'm Plat) if I choose the "BE+bag" ticket instead of regular economy, and there's only a $100 difference in price.
Being able to change the booking and re-use the ticket value for a completely different trip doesn't hurt either.
