Groups 1 and 3 won't fly enough to affect you. Group 2 will become 75K quickly enough anyway, so they just get a small head-start that really doesn't affect you.
Why are you so possessive about your 75K status?
I'm not even 75K. I would be if it weren't for the dump 90K w/ partners requirement. I'm not opposed to giving it away to 1K, Diamond or Exec Plat but not mid tier elites who fly the same as me are getting better treatment. Maybe I'm just becoming an over entitled elite. I don't really care about Upgrades that much anymore since the new seats are too damn cramped.
