Agreed. I don't think anyone was suggesting otherwise.

Even on my own, it increased a bit between the day QF quoted me my change fee and when they ticketed it so they had to reverify my authorization with me, but I didn't care it wasn't significant yet. But it was a sign that the base fare increase was imminent.
Increased in EGP or in some other currency to match the fluctuations in exchange rate?

So please stop pointing fingers at AA for something they didn't do. You literally got in at the last second of this fare and be grateful if you got something ticketed.
I'm sorry you are so disturbed by my sharing my experience and being on a journey that started with me believing what agents told me and ended with me realising that was a mistake and as has been noted several times... The crucial issue is if it's ticketed or not.
BTW can I please have your credit card details? I'd like to charge it for $10k against your permission because if you feel I shouldn't point fingers at AA for that then logically you won't point fingers at me if I did it.

That's simply it, the fare is there at ticketing or it's not... there's no fare hold, there's no credit card hold so you're safe, etc. It's there at the time of ticketing or it's not... end of story.
I'm here to learn, help others where I can and hopefully get help and maybe even support. I'm struggling a little to stick purely to that given your... upset at me? And I'm not sure of your full set of reasons to be here so it's with some trepidation I'll note that contray to the apparent conviction in what you just asserted... I had (yep, still have) a hold on my card from AA for both tickets, and the one that ticketed did so days after that MH fare it uses was pulled. It's now clear (here to learn, right) one should not rely on ticketing promises from multiple agents promise it, but to say something never happens right after someone says it just happened to them is a bit.. odd.
I'm happy to DM if you want to resolve something further that's about me. IMHO the thread should only be about what can help
