Ah, I see. But the point I was making is that SQ would award 100% miles to its own members on a SQ W fare. So if you were to book on of these fares, then the decision about which FFP to credit the miles to is very important because you could get full mileage (KF), 50% mileage (LH M&M) or potentially no mileage (BD DC).

Therefore I was contesting what shortfinals had said here:

In the above situation (purchasing a SQ W fare) it matters very much which FFP is being credited.
