So here is an interesting upgrade question:

I was on a flight today (in F) and someone got up and switched seats with someone in the back to sit next to their spouse. In exchange, a non-elite got the F seat. So far it sounds kosher - that woman earned the seat and chose to give it to someone else. I overheard the GA saying to the FA, "That isn't right, there are elites on the list that should get that seat". The FA said, "Well, its her seat to choose who sits there."

So what do you think?
