How many RDM's you earn has always been a YMMV situation given status and the FFP to which you credit.

After the devaluation, you would earn a lot less redeemable miles. Someone without any status with United would only earn about 3500 miles, instead of the 18000 or so that this earns today. Even with the highest UA status, this fare would only earn 7700 redeemable miles. Thus "YMMV", your redeemable earnings depend on your status and the price paid and no longer have anything to do with the number of miles that you fly.

Look at what KE gives for DL - I am pretty sure will go down even more in 2015
