I can see the value of accumulating *A miles on a UA account by flying other *A airlines due to better service on other airlines. Just not sure if you can avoid UA/CO as much as you'd like for domestice travel. If most of your travel is INTL then I can easily see avoiding UA/CO.
One thing to note is that to achieve status on UA, you must fly 4 UA or Copa flights.
