Yes, that would be a very salient point to put to CEDR, given that Heathrow is the home of BA. So I certainly think that's very relevant, along with querying as to why they selected the Nice flight specifically here. I got the cancellation at midnight, as part of a download of short notice cancellations, so that times in with you being told a few hours before that.
