Now thinking retrospectively, probably it upgraded the whole RTW to A because of last leg?
No, it's standard on DONEx for QR segments in the middle east to book into A, it still remains a DONEx ticket. There was something else triggering the difference and likely somewhere else in the itinerary. Hard to say without running the full itinerary myself, but the ex-CAI fare isn't there anymore and at the time at least, the tool was blocking all ex-CAI itineraries just before the price adjustment.
In your earlier post it sounds like you were actually looking at a DGLOB34 even without knowing it if it was showing you JL affiliated LCCs, must have been Jetstar Japan but that wouldn't be allowed on a DONEx. But that alone isn't the price difference, there was almost no difference in price between DGLOB34, DONE3, DONE4, and DONE5, only the DONE6 was a good bit higher, but not that much higher.
