United Basic Economy (fare class N) credit to Asiana

Folks,

I just noticed that the earning rate for United flights has the following statement in Asiana's website.

    N Class : Miles can be earned but cannot be used for flights
I'm looking at some United basic economy flights, which were coded as N class. Both Asiana's table and WhereToCredit http://www.wheretocredit.com/united-airlines/n suggest 50% accrual, but I'm confused by their wording.

Do they mean that they will count the miles for elite qualification purposes but these miles are not available for award tickets?
