Particularly, say, when they give you YOW-YYZ-DXB on a J reward, and the Dubai portion is in economy.
Sort of like when cable companies defaulted to options, without choice.

Yeah that's my biggest frustration, I don't mind a mixed cabin but you should be able to specify that you only care about the long-haul portion in J.

The option is completely useless, because your first segment is always going to be in Y.

Even for airports with many J flights, this option is equally useless sometime. I remember enabling this option and I got only one option with 20+ hours layover for an intra Asia route.

It's essentially Aeroplan's way of pulling a fast one on infrequent fliers who don't notice when they book - they're charged for a business class ticket, only to find out when they board they're in a middle seat way in the back.
Ethics indeed.
