There are some things you get with GS that you simply cannot purchase with a J seat.

1) Benz rides across the tarmac
2) Converting T space into XN
3) Using RPU/GPU on award tickets
4) The aforementioned next flight guarantee
5) Global reception - walk to front of TSA Pre line

These perks are what make GS untouchable.
