The chart does seem strange at first glance. Any existing elite at AA, UA, or CO, particularly in the top tier, should have deep enough knowledge of their current program not to be seriously tempted to change.
That means the chart must really only be there to target the existing DL and NW elite members, to convince them there's no reason to even investigate alternatives. It's classic defensive marketing.
