To be honest, I don’t even buy the argument that the vouchers are useful during peak times, as I’ve recently booked LAX for August in business for £1250 return from DUB and SYD for £1250 business return from DUB next January. I also flew to Dubai during December for around £1000 per person from CDG – again, a good price at a peak time. People just enjoy finding some crazy fully flexible business class fares during half term or whatever, and then pretending they’ve gotten huge values per Avios, when they would never have paid the actual cash prices and could probably have found an ExEU that was good value with little effort.

Wow good for you.
You go ahead and do your ex-eu flights as it probably works with your young person lifestyle.
The reality for the rest of us who have no choice but to travel in school holidays (often with family) is somewhat different.
