BA don't offer increased baggage allowance as a benefit either, nor do they offer priority baggage.
I think only QF and CX offer both priority baggage and increased allowances within OW and generally offer it to OW elites out of courtesy. One however should never expect it as it is not a defined benefit of OW - CX and QF staff offering the benefit are doing so simply as a gesture of good will.
