So much for the integration of ITA into LH Group.
I think that's just the way they've coded their fares. The rest of the LH Group seems to be like this too - or if it is allowed, it'll be full C or J. BA/oneworld joint-business fares seem to be the only airline grouping that allows this at the cheaper / restricted levels.
