Thanks for the shout-out, Jerry. True, unless the price differential between CMB and Pakistan improves, I'll stick with Sri Lanka for now. However, as wingzing pointed out, things are continually changing. Right now I see IONE3 ex-CMB at USD $5,410.43, and ex-KHI at USD $4,663.28. SO at roughly USD $750, we're starting to approach a price differential that I would consider sufficiently attractive.
Then there's the issue of scheduling. I would need to be able to schedule in and out with maybe a few hours. I'm not interested in a 10 hour connection in Pakistan, such as the one I'm in the middle of right now at NRT. I can be pretty flexible on origin and destination airports; but I really have no interest in that long a layover at KHI.
Speaking of NRT, be aware that the regular Sakura F lounge in the main building is currently closed for renovation. It's apparently being replaced temporarily (I hope) by a smaller windowless F lounge upstairs. And I was just informed that the Sakura F lounge in the satellite terminal is closed between 1100 and 1500. So I guess that I'll be heading

Did you say those fares were for LONE3? Was that from EF?
EF LONE3 ex-CMB is $2512; and ex-KHI is $2163

Currently, EF reports:
ex-HKI IONE3 $4663.28USD; DONE3 $4758.44USD
ex-CMB IONE3 $5410.43USD; DONE3 $6216.98USD.
I-based fares obviously must be booked into I (or the designated coach inventory), which is less available than D.

If you can put up with the online booking tool and can get it to price a similar itinerary, that can give you an all-in cost. Or if you know a travel agent who uses Sabre, they can create an itinerary and autoprice it.

The base fares of Oneworld Explorer tickets originating anywhere in South America have been published in USD since at least 2012
So if you were paying in ARS, the USD price would be converted to ARS at the then exchange rate.
(For a brief period in 2013 the Rule Sheet for the Oneworld Explorer included the world-wide base fares. I kept a copy. South American base fares were in USD)
