- I am afraid that US Platinums will become AA PLTs with more generous mile bonus (100%) vs.what they have now (75%). This would be also consistent with the BA tier structure.
Not sure why BA tier structure is relevant. The consistent message we have heard is that the new program will have wins and loses from each of the pm programs.

Your proposal would be a messy matrix... A US Elite who earns on status may reach 100 segments but less than 100,000 PQM ... That would qualify as US Plt but match to AA Exec Plt.
