I was tempted to do just that to get the 500 miles, but when I book on the Frontier site with a new FF number, I don't have any of the MME benefits...primarily getting Stretch or exit row at booking.

As someone who does system conversion and integration for a living, I'm sure this is quite a project. The process of moving my YX account into the F9 base is probably far easier and less perilous than merging my YX account with a new F9 account. Merging my DL and NW accounts was messy and I had issues of not being able to log in, incorrect information, etc, for a time. It did not harm me because I wasn't doing anything active with either account and my DL/NW flying was being credited to my YX account. But it took time to get cleaned up, and I would not be surprised to see similar in this merge.
