Those who qualify without DEQM don't want an extension. And those who would benefit from DEQM want it.
AS will do what AS thinks is best for them.
Personally, I hadn't really paid any attention to AS requalification in many months (my last flight was in July). Yesterday I looked at the new elite qualification rules and it looks like I *might* make Gold if I end up flying two revenue RTs in J to Europe this year as currently anticipated and a small handful of domestic AS trips. DEQM would make it more likely and thus might shift a bit of un-booked travel to AS.
