Well. You relayed undocumented rumors, which I and many others here believe to be wrong, so yes I should comment. Also I did have experience with missed connections on reward flights, and now a days there aren't much difference when it comes to missed connections and canceled flights. They both require a rebooking for the leg you are not flying according to original schedule.
