CO to NW?

Hi folks.

I just achieved my Gold with CO and am considering status match to NW. Rationale:
*I fly about 50% of my miles with AS within AK, and they will upgrade NW Elite but not CO.
*I fly ANC-CLE quite a bit, usually on NW, which means I only get 50% EQM. Why not start the year out getting 100% of them?
*CO's defection to *A and NW/DL merger--I'd rather stay in SkyTeam since my family is located in the ATL/AL area, Delta's hub.
*Upcoming trip with husband and I found out (correct me if I'm wrong) that NW will not UG companions for CO Gold. Correct?
*Hopefully after this year hubby and I will be moving to New Mexico, where I won't be doing nearly as much travel and, if I do, it'll be on SW primarily.

Basically I'm waiting for someone to give me good reasons not to do this and also what I should send them. For some reason, this makes me nervous.

Help please!?!?
