In principle, unbundling could help elites to avoid paying for FC features (special check in and TSA airport security lines, for instance) that they receive automatically due to status. The same holds for those who have lounge access through membership, credit cards, or status. In practice, I suspect bare bones FC will sell for the same price, with all of the added optional junk fees tacked on top.
