With respect to UDU on awards, it can only be done by GS, and only if there is space available within the 120-hour window (no waitlisting, no airport standby). It is not automatic; you have to call GS inside the window.

When a ticket from ORD to YYZ is $700+ oneway but only 10,000 miles, the miles are the better deal.

That's a double upgrade; I think it goes without saying that something like that would not be permitted.
