I use *A around 20 times a year, often travelling with another person with no *G, have a bit of extra luggage here or there, and do appreciate business check-in above all things, especially when flying out of Eastern Europe/Caucasus/Central Asia. So all the perks line up nicely for me.
Not sure how frequent are *G upgrades for TK Elite card holiders while flying TK, they did happen on SG, OK and LH when I used them as a Gold/Platinum card holder.
Also, I would have spent the said 2k on a business flight somewhere anyway when going on holiday.
But I guess we can just agree to disagree on how nice it is to get a *G for 15000 miles
