So what??? Are you saying those that are not married deserve nothing? That's UA's problem for coming up with this ridiculous benefit that besides being worthless to a lot of people is also discrimitory.

I wouldn't take the chance myself but only cuz I have a GF that does not need it. If I didn't, who knows. I deserve the same benefits as everyone else!!!

It's a lifetime benefit granted at the required mileage achievement. The only further requirement is to breathe, although there's probably nothing preventing SO from continuing to enjoy benefit post your demise (other than sense of honesty).
Did you really say the word "lifetime"?
