Couldn’t they just oversell PE and roll forward to J in that case? AA does it all the time.

Plus, it’s not like PE saver awards are rare — they simply do not exist. I’m not convinced there is *no* scenario where UA *might* want to sell a PE saver. Seems more likely they would, but IT said “sorry, but this computer system is from the 70s and we’re still working through the list of the 40000 other changes you want, we’ll get to it later.”
