BASSA come back in and pick up where they left off - how can that be beneficial to the business
That's a very good question, and I'm sure one that the non-strikers, and the pilots, many of whom I believe BASSA think "are beneath contempt", need an answer to.
I think the changes to BA's facilities agreement will deal with that. BASSA reps will be rostered full time flying duties and expected to be reps on days off. Derostering will be only for disciplinaries - which I believe was imposed when the strike started. They simply won't have time to cause the mischief they've been so famous for.

Quite a good way of ensuring that the people who caused the mess are bearing most its cost, IMHO.

WW and Unite might go further and dismantle BASSA completely somehow. After the last few weeks I bet Unite are keener on that idea than even WW might be!
