There's been lots of speculation about various ways UA may hose MMs and this would certainly be one.
I am wondering if United is concerned about the number of flyers who are dropping from 1K to Platinum after the changes for 2020, and especially 2021.

There are many more 1MM and as a number of us comment on FT Platinum has very little advantage over Gold. So many of us at 1Mm who have no hope of getting to 3MM see little value in 2MM.

So wondering if a potential enhancement/differentiation for Platinum vs Gold.

I am one of the 1MM, 1K in 2020 who is planning free agency in 2021 as I see no value in Platinum although do acknowledge the PlusPoints available for Platinum but currently not enough perks at Platinum as something for me to want.

Mere speculation of course.
