Doesn't make sense to me.

(Also checking daily for 2x F tickets LAS to MIA for next April but no luck)
Domestically. Not internationally. (upgrades)

Why? Because who in their right mind would fly 100k miles per year on AA based on the promise of free upgrades, and then miss out because anybody with a few thousand miles could book up all the premium cabin space using miles.
