Actually, the published rules do not say that. GS are not referenced anywhere in UA's upgrade priority rules. It is once again an unpublished status level and not subject to published rules.
I agree we'll have to see how this plays, but I expect GS in Y will still have priority over all other elites for J upgrades.
