Can't imagine this changing that. I guess i'll see how this year goes, and then switch to miles & more if needed.
I can't speak for your TA, but I can book you in one of the upper J fares on UA and upgrade you to UA GF. Might not be as nice as LH F, but a couple flights will take care of your PQD problem and you can go back to LH after hitting the target.
