I think your perspective is a bit twisted. Why would UA's shareholders celebrate getting $3000 when they can have my $20,000 instead??

Are you seriously trying to argue that a steeply discounted 100K mile flyer is more valuable to UA than a full-fare 100 segment flyer? That is some contorted logic right there.

If this is UA's management philosophy then they don't deserve my business.
