Or burn them J to F and use the excellent Flagship First dining at DFW, LAX or JFK now.

You cannot rightly compare using an SWU in 2011 vs 2019. As Antarius said above... sure, C space in 2011 was plenty, but you upgraded into a NGBC seat that was a ski slope with limited privacy. I'm at peace with having to waitlist my SWUs to get into the excellent new INTL biz class AA has on a majority of their fleet. And I've never missed an SWU in the past 5 years as EXP. Not once.
