You are unlikely to get a free date change unless your country has a department like US DOT that forces BR to do so.
BR has been charging passengers left and right for date changes caused by their flight cancellations even if it's same booking class changes since the fare is higher than the time booked (or not offering the original booking code so you have to re-fare due to their non-operations). It's also not going to be a pleasant experience if you have to go through OTA to get the fare.
I wouldn't book any BR flights now if it looks unclear when the boarder will re-open.

given that ACCC has pressured Qantas to offer refund instead of credit for cancelled flight, it should be possible to obtain refund from Eva, I hope

Do I read it too optimistically when I think changes can be made even before Flying first Sector as long as that sector is not changing? I did not manage to book stopovers but would like to change that
