That is dynamic pricing, albeit a simple one.
For a given flight you have either 1x (say 50k), 2x (100k) or no availability.
A given flight might be offered at 1x, then move to 2x as availability decreases, then no award.

AF has a more refined dynamic pricing, it could start at 1x, (standard award) then 1.5x, then 1.75x, then 2x, then 2.25x....
AGain, partners like VS might only be offered AF award when availability on the 1x standard award.
