REACTION, DISCUSSION: EQD, status tier, upgrade changes as of 6 Jun 2016

This is still too vague and ripe for carnage-qualifying:

On most flights marketed by partner airlines, you'll earn award miles based on a percentage of the flight distance and the fare class of your ticket. Rates will be available by July 15.
As well as this, for EQD earning:

Flights marketed by oneworldŽ carriers and Alaska Airlines will earn EQDs based on a percentage of the flight distance and the fare class purchased.
Also, if you're going to be over 50K EMQs this year, don't bother pushing for I-can't-say-it-so-stupid-name-it-hurts:

If I reach 75,000 EQMs or 90 EQS during 2016, will I qualify for Platinum Pro in 2017?

No, qualification for Platinum Pro does not begin until January 1, 2017 and requires meeting the minimum EQD threshold in addition to the EQM or EQS threshold.
OMG, "Platinum Pro"? :headdesk:
