Doesn't seem to be a problem if you use "flexible economy" with "lowest first" just unable to put "lowest economy" in the mix.
Hmm...I am able to see reasonable economy fares for the return trip. As in, about $500-600. I do feel kinda dumb though, I have never booked paid J on the UA site, only through business travel sites before. I should have gotten flying F out of SFO out of the way on a trip my company was paying for, then I wouldn't have to shell out for paid J just to see what's in the UA GFL and experience sitting in the nose cone of a 744!
