You're missing the point. It is a Brexit red line that the ECJ will have no judicial say over anything British. EASA use the ECJ. For British airlines to continue operating in Europe post December 2020 either Britain has to capitulate or Europe has to Capitulate. If Europe capitulates then it's the cake and eat it scenario.
I understand that at some point in the future bi-lateral agreements will be negotiated but we don't know how restrictive that will be. Certainly there will be a campaign by Lufthansa and Air France to prevent a good deal for British Airlines.
