I've just assumed that ANA wouldn't match it. Even if they comped me Platinum status (which only lasts one year), I doubt they'd comp me SFC (which basically lasts for life or until ANA changes the program) if I didn't fly the required number of miles... But if they were willing to do so, I'd jump at the chance.
