That would be for the OP to decide whether the extra benefits are worth the extra costs. At almost $300 premium & a hit on EQM/RDM (don't forget no elite bonus on OZ), I probably won't. However, if prices are similar, I am actually willing to take the EQM/RDM hit for a more enjoyable flight, especially if we are comparing B747s (UA 777s aren't bad, though).
