If you knew that Accor Live Limitless will be the new Le Club AccorHotels in 2020, it's time I thought of a rescue plan for Le Club. There could be new branding such as 'Le Club JAL' and 'Le Club Cathay' if Le Club is spun off to become an independent FFP corporation with Accor Live Limitless becoming AccorHotels' new loyalty program. Here are the possible airlines that could use Le Club as their FFP if Accor Live Limitless becomes AccorHotels' loyalty program:

1. Cathay Pacific ('Le Club Cathay'; could replace the Marco Polo Club as its FFP)
2. Japan Airlines ('Le Club JAL'; could replace the JAL Mileage Bank as its FFP)
3. Finnair ('Le Club Finnair'; could replace Finnair Plus as its FFP)
4. S7 Airlines ('Le Club S7'; could replace S7 Priority as its FFP)
5. Wizz Air ('Le Club Wizz'; could replace WIZZ Discount Club as its FFP)

In addition, if Le Club becomes the FFP for the above 5 airlines after Accor Live Limitless becomes AccorHotels' loyalty program, there could be new tiers, as well as changes to the existing tiers (Classic, Silver, Gold, and Platinum). The possible changes to the tiers for Le Club if it becomes an FFP are as follows:

1. Classic could become Basic (Oneworld) (upon joining Le Club)
2. Silver could become Standard (all Basic benefits as well as Oneworld Ruby benefits) (from 10000 miles onwards)
3. The tier in between Standard and Nova+ could be Standard Extra (all Basic benefits as well as Oneworld Ruby benefits) (from 30000 miles onwards)
4. Gold could become Nova+ (all Basic and Oneworld Ruby benefits as well as Oneworld Sapphire benefits) (from 60000 miles onwards)
5. Platinum could become La Premiere (all Basic and Oneworld Ruby benefits as well as Oneworld Sapphire benefits) (from 90000 miles onwards)
6. The tier after La Premiere for Le Club could be La Premiere Select (all Basic and Oneworld Ruby/Sapphire benefits as well as Oneworld Emerald benefits) (from 150000 miles onwards)
7. The tier after La Premiere Select for Le Club could be Expatriate One (all Basic and Oneworld Ruby/Sapphire benefits as well as Oneworld Emerald benefits) (from 500000 miles onwards)

This means that, for example, if you have a Le Club membership in 2021 and fly Wizz Air often, then if the above happens, you (as an Expatriate One-tier member) could use the Premium lounge of both the Schengen and non-Schengen terminals of the Budapest Liszt Ferenc Airport.

The OP has a similar post on here:

Why I believe World of Hyatt could be the new FFP of an airline or two

She did originally sign off as a 15 year old. So if she is, please go easy.

Maybe it's a school project?
