In FT's spirit, wouldn't you pick SQ for the UA miles? (unless it's a non-mileage accruing fare)

For SFO-HKG, I prefer SQ because (a) the seats have better padding; (b) I will not go hungry on SQ flights; and (c) SQ has upgraded the blankets in Y on the 77W (it's thick and fluffy) and the SQ pillows provide better support.
