Is there any reliable way to calculate OW points award rate?

I've re-qualified for Gold status with that status now running through end of November 2026. One question I have, however, concerns securing status for the next program year. Specifically, there is a requirement where 4 flights. Specifically the Qantas website states:

A minimum of four eligible flights must be taken with Qantas (QF) or Jetstar (JQ, GK) flight numbers on your ticket that earn Status Credits

Am I correct in thinking that if I were to take an Emirates flight or a British Airways flight which has a QF flight number on the ticket (and which earns status credits) that should be fine, or do I literally need to be seated on a Qantas operated flight? One other question if I may, how does Qantas flights between Europe and Australia work for the purposes of ticking the 4 flight requirement? For instance, suppose I were to fly from London to Sydney (via S'pore) on QF2, would that count as one tick since it's just one flight number or two ticks (since there's a connection in S'pore)?
