For that you have to do it manually yourself (I just did mine in excel ...).
So it would be conversion as at today + counting points under the new system onwards till 15 Apr?

For me, worse off. No need to use excel...

Since renewal in mid-Aug...

One LHR RT in W: 55 points x 2 v. 65.8 points x 2 // 15.5 points x 2
One SYD RT in E: 35 points x 2 v. 50.5 points x 2 // 15.5 points x 2
Three PEK / PVG RT in Y: 15 points x 2 v. (not important) // 15 points x 2

So slum class flyer will find it more difficult to reach premium member tier, while premium class flyer will find it easier (despite that W / Y fare may still be higher than I sometimes)
