I see what you are saying and agree. I think its too late to re-purpose the OpenSkies brand for the LEVEL operation, although Im not sure too many people know it exists to be honest! OpenSkies has always been a bit of an experiment, was conceived in a time before IAG and the BA/AA/IB/AY joint business as a way for BA to utilise the then new US-EU Open Skies Agreement. After IAG and the JV it seemed a little superfluous.

OpenSkies does seem to have its own, French, AOC, IATA and ICAO codes (EC/BOS). Are these going to be reused for LEVEL, which currently uses IB infrastructure?
