I expect we'll see threads like 'Silver for under £3000' pop up in the future!
I shall keep researching!
I started seeing still somewhat works for me. Given I am based in Asia so even more options to play around with AY/QR or even JL on transpacific. It looks like spending somewhere around £3000 on those carries with 50% TP earning would yield a Silver if the calculation is correct. The only issue would be BA could come up with a TP calculation or chart to proof the understanding correct. It's Not entirely the end game as it seems even one trip for Asia-Europe would almost get you to Silver in future.
sad thing for me is I will be missing CX F lounge in HKG and QF F lounge in SYD after Mar26 I guess
