Is the "Buy a Latitude fare and upgrade using Star Alliance" just blowing smoke as far as AC is concerned? Has anyone had success with this?
Yes, but very very rarely.
They don't even open up R class for god's sake!
Yes, you are right. The is no reason of buying Latitude fare with the hope of upgrading with points.
