EI really leaving oneworld? BA takes LHR-DUB codeshare route off sale

It looks like BA has taken the LHR-DUB route off sale. The BA website now returns this message when you try to book it:-

Is this an acceptance of the inevitable departure of EI from oneworld? Has EI already definitively made up its mind?

Try YYZ-LHR-DUB and you find it. I think BA just doesn't allow bookings of Aer Lingus only tickets.

It used to enable you to book EI tickets LHR-DUB but never any of the other UK-DUB routes.

EI are also pulling their european routes off of the Galileo res system with only the trans atlantics remaining.
All bookings will be point to point on the net, saving them bundles of cash on connecting flights gone wrong.
