As for BA denying there's award availability on LAN, it could be phantom availability unfortunately. I've noticed it's often phantom when BA says there are 7 seats online for LAN/TAM flights.
This is what happened. But I took a screenshot so they honored it.

The SPG thing was the correct thing to do -- the issue was the ultimate rewards --> Korean was the usual x-fer but wife doesn't have an UR card (she has done 5/24) so I couldn't transfer to her there.

SPG works though as she has points there.
