I don't know just how uncommon it is for them to have 9 op-ups on a flight; what I do know is that the statement "Only plats are entitled to even be considered" is not accurate. That is all I was addressing.
I do believe that platinum elites are generally prioritized but because there is no set rule claiming that there is one is misleading and ill-informed.
