What I wonder is do the Star Alliance partners pay each other different prices / settle differently for award tickets based on luggage allowance. Or, this was a smart mile grab by AC?
I would say it's possible, yes, in some cases. But AC doesn't want to include baggage on its own flights in a Standard Reward, so they also want to keep the rules consistent for the reward fare family
