This potentially makes all economy tickets fully flexible. The price to buy miles when Flying Blue have discounts are 80 cents per mile.

Why would we ever buy a revenue ticket again?

Previously the fee was 50 euros- much lower than changing a revenue ticket. And I'm pretty sure most PFLs were not buying miles to buy award tickets to gain that bit of extra flexibility.
