Not great if you are after free flights, but absolutely awesome for those who do most of their flights with a different alliance but would still like to maintain a status with *A to keep their options open.
It's also worth noting that for UA or US fliers who are looking for a "cheap" lounge access option, the cheaper buckets on UA (TLSKW) only earn 50%. All buckets on US earn 100%. The latter is handy when the UA-metal codeshare booked on US is significantly cheaper.
