If you were to do that, it would be fraud, based on the definition of spouse or significant other.

If United were to grandfather those who made million mile status before the two plans merge, there would not be any complaints.

Or, if United allowed a choice between the former benefit (2 regional upgrades annually) or the spouse status there would be less complaining.

The way it is now, it is clear and simple discrimination no matter how much some people may not like that word - or call it bias if you prefer.
