Just ran some calculations but based on flown-to-date! I'd earn more miles with the new scheme than the old.
The expensive short-hops I do (EWR-CMH, EWR-atl, etc.) add up fast and offset the cheaper transcons.
I'll be OK, but I feel bad for those taking it in the shorts.
Now, if we can just thin the ranks above me a little... Would help my upgrade stats tremendously. Thanks to all of the switchers.
