Exactly, they've been purposefully putting up with what they perceive as a lesser product for status providing something they got anyway...
Where is the logic in that, bar the need to think you need it
Loads of people are going to get their heads above the BA waves all of a sudden and save themselves loads of money, pretty much doing exactly what they did before, simply in different coloured planes! I found it truly liberating when I gave it up 6-7 years back.
