Believe there is no difference between using SWU, CR1 or miles, an 1K using any of these goes onto the PA list and an 1P or lower goes on PB. The list is determined by the status of the upgrade instrument provider, not the status of the flyer. The DM list is by the status of the passenger.

To the best of my knowledge, the full details of the system are not published by UA.
