Those two issues are completely unrelated.

Existing oneworld airlines don't have a premium economy cabin.

When we hear that airlines are being threatened with expulsion from oneworld for not having a premium economy cabin, or that members are installing it to maintain their membership of the alliance, then maybe this linking of two disparate things could become credible.

If it did, however, personally I would see it as a guarantee that EI would not rejoin oneworld.
