of course there is; I choose AA over other carriers since I receive superior benefits as an EXP. Same situation as the OP.

I wouldn't call anything "definite". But agreed on the liklihood of the request being granted. AA's elite program specifics are well documented. There's probably a good reason that "status deferral" isn't one of those benefits.
