One other thing DL over looks with SWU's that matter.
Let's say someone is totally committed to AA now and enough to DM to get to that level but decide rollover makes sense since they will start at Silver and pretty close to Gold.
If they gave SWU's that count they would have to actually buy a ticket to use them; they are not available to use on an award.
Therefore anyone that stops short or leaves after acquiring enough status to avoid DM but stay at PM is leaving money on the table.
Did I ever say Jeff found a loyalty program that does not promote loyalty. Good Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
