CX believes that these customers though are important to their business that is why they tag their bags, they don't do it because they are just trying to be nice.

Surely CX have to fork out less liability to these folks than other people who choose to bank it in those thrid world country AAirlines!

I am not saying that DM+ or DM are not valuable customers and whether or not they choose to bank into less attractive programs is their mistake, why should someone who has done their homework but still does a significant portion of their flying on CX not be treated as a valued customer, there is of course the opposite, although probably quite rare of DM+ and DM's who do very little flying on CX but still have status with them, should they be treated as less valuable by CX because they never fly on CX metal?

Im not quite sure I understand what specifically you are referring to?
