Easiest solution would be to restore the benefits they promised me and other millions milers over the years.
I think courts are reluctant to throw cases out when there's so much open to interpretation.

I suspect they'll grandfather those in and will reduce the benefits for prospective frequent flyers trying to attain such status.

The question isn't who wins the battle, it's who wins the war. United's ultimately lost sight of the bigger picture.
