Whoever suggested a JURY deciding this, consider this possibility:
Imagine a JURY OF YOUR PEERS having to decide this issue... that is 12 people, of which in all probability, AT THE MOST, only one of them might have elite status with an airline... Imagine if all you ELITE people had to rely on THAT kind of jury, in other words, A FAIR JURY, deciding if you deserve more civil rights than they do, or not... I suppose one of those rights might be if you have the right to have an airline commit fraud against SOME travelers, for the sole benefit of some OTHER travelers, like ELITE travelers ...should the airline be allowed to commit fraud, for your benefit at someone else's expense... Imagine, if you have to rely on NON-elite people deciding that FOR you...
I can already hear some of you starting to shake at that prospect...
In other words, would you elite people trust a bunch of what you consider non-elite LOW LIFES, determing YOUR fate--that is should you have more civil rights than they do--and should THEY make up most of the jury to determine YOUR fate?

It's a miracle that the coach passengers, whom you have described as "non-elite LOW LIFES" didn't storm the airport gate and lynch those FC passengers who got ahead of them in line.
Or maybe it's because everyone not totally bereft of their wits already know the things you seem to be woefully ignorant about.
