For what it's worth, I have PPS status but no BA status. Though so far I don't really feel much benefit from the PPS status, at most I'm annoyed that the milestone awards are taken away.
Club Suites has a door and some people prefer it to sleeping than on SQ including myself (the angled SQ Js are a bit... yeah)

But clealiness wise - SQ is great. BA's cleanliness is very much akin to like Scoot if you've ever sat on them before.

Also, Club World Suites on SIN-LHR vv isn't available all year round. The Northern Winter schedule you get it on BA15 and the old Club World on the A380 on BA11, but you don't have that choice in the Northern Summer schedule since the 77W is substituted with a 789. Which means no matter which flight you're flying on BA to SIN, you're getting the old seats.

You won't get access to the Qatar/Cathay/Qantas lounges from LHR T5 since those lounges are elsewhere (CX/QF in T3, QR in T4). In SIN, Cathay's lounge is in T4 which is a huge hassle to get from T1/2/3. QR might not let you in too - they tend to reserve space for their own flights and limit access to other airline J flyers.
