2) get an extra elite qualification segment
3) be eligible for an upgrade on one segment if the upgrade on the other segment cannot also clear

I really hope that WineCountryUA is correct and that the PremExec help line agent was wrong, but unfortunately I doubt it....
Yes, I can confirm this is what will happen.
