Agreed, but....
If you live in Asia, or near LAX, SFO, IAH, or JFK/EWR, then you can use your miles on the superior SQ product. If you are not so lucky, and can't arrange a trip to take advantage easily, you MUST be aware that unlike most airlines, no matter your status or any action you might take, your KrisFlyer miles WILL eventually expire. Better to burn them stateside on UA than lose them entirely.
