My issue with BA is advance seat selection. BA does not allow it on this fare unless you have OW status.
I booked this recently and after the realization that my AS status was of no help, I canceled. Wife cannot ride backwards and I will not pay a fee for a seat selection in a premium cabin.
Too bad - it is a good fare.

I also almost booked this fare earlier this year and for me too, advance seat selection is important. Once I added the cost to select seats for all 4 sectors, the fare was actually higher than Swiss via Zurich where seat selection for Business Class is free of charge and in my opinion Swiss' Business Class is better than BA's.

There is an interesting routing for slightly more US$1761: AMS-LHR-KUL-BKK with the final segment on MH in Z I believe. An extra 80 tier points for BA earners or apx 400 EQD's for AA.
And, not "duo" but due (if Italian) or dos (if Spanish.)

I could have written this exact same post! I did the same thing last spring (for a summer flight), but ended up on Etihad for about the same price (after I added up the cost of the BA seats).
.....and I agree that Swiss' biz is better than BA.
