Changing a non-changeable/non-refundable BA flight?? Suggestions?

I'll tell you why not - because other travellers have paid more for the flexibility. The airline would be turning down valuable revenue by allowing you to change FOC.
Why would the airline be wasting money? It's probably too late to resell your original seat which would then go empty anyway. The low cost model relies on regular overselling, meaning most flights will have standbys waiting for a seat - allowing you to travel earlier then frees up your seat. The "Traditional" airlines are rarely oversold (shorthaul anyway) so there's no incentive to be flexible.0
