Here is the text from EVA's website (In reference to U/Z bookings):
"The mileage record with cabin class upgrade is based on the purchased fare class and can be credited to the Infinity MileageLands membership account only. It is not applied to transfer to other partner airlines."
Here is a direct link:

Is my only option to credit to MileageLands?
Appreciate the help!
My understanding is that if you use IML miles to upgrade, then you can only credit to IML. It does not apply if you use other airlines' miles to upgrade.
