Oh, I realize that... To me SE would mean being able to use IKK for a trip to SYD, for example. Other than that, most of the benefits of E are sufficient. Would I be willing to fly to NRT for a few hours once (~13000 miles)? Yes. Twice? Not sure. Three times? No. Unless someone comes up with a scheme by which a $450 one-way fare can be upgraded using an SWU, it's not going to happen.
