Sorry, of course you are correct. You can manage the same effect in a more complicated way by starting the ticket somewhere else in Europe, but it may not be worth it.
And yes, there is no need to take 20 sectors just for the sake of it, but most people do take some extra trip in their country of origin during the same year they do a RTW; may as well get it thrown in on BA rather than Ryanair. People on LONEx tickets also tend to appreciate the small monetary benefit maybe more than those on DONEx or AONEx tickets...
