Points based system unfair
The points based system would have led to some strange anomalies: For example 4 P return flights from an EU location via FRA to North Africa would have earned you SEN.
Also flying F would not have been sufficiently honored (70 points) but flying in cheap P encouraged (50 points).
The main problem will be that there will be much less SEN and even fewer HON by end February 2021. IMHO M&less should have extended all status validities by one year, not only the ones expiring in February 2021.
This said, I couldn't care less. I am out of the game as Lifetime SEN and will choose now whatever suits me best and the pandemic possibly blowing away many dreams in the next six month we all have other problems.
