do others agree with Gary from VFTW that AAviator silver spend bonuses with LP are up in the air for 2023 and beyond? Article is from October 2021 but have not seen update given this whole LP rollout was messy at launch

This is from AA Silver site:
Up to 15,000 additional Loyalty Points
Starting January 1, 2022, the primary cardmember may earn additional Loyalty Points (as defined in the AAdvantage® section of aa.com) if spend thresholds detailed below are met during the status qualification period. The initial status qualification period will be extended by two months, running from January 1, 2022 through February 28, 2023. Beginning on March 1, 2023, the status qualification period will be the twelve-month period beginning on March 1, and running through the end of February of the following year. During the transition from Elite Qualifying Dollars (EQDs), Elite Qualifying Miles (EQMs), and Elite Qualifying Segments (EQSs) to Loyalty Points, the spend with the Card Account during January and February 2022, will count toward both EQDs & EQMs, and Loyalty Points. The primary cardmember may earn an additional 5,000 Loyalty Points if they spend $20,000 on Net Purchases made with the Card Account with a transaction date during the status qualification period. The primary cardmember may earn an additional 5,000 Loyalty Points during the same status qualification period if they spend $40,000 on Net Purchases with the Card Account. The primary cardmember may earn an additional 5,000 Loyalty Points during the same status qualification period if they spend $50,000 on Net Purchases with the Card Account. The AAdvantage® Aviator® Silver Mastercard® primary cardmember may earn the maximum 15,000 additional Loyalty Points once during each status qualification period, even if the primary cardmember has more than one AAdvantage® Aviator® Silver Mastercard® account and met the spend threshold on each. Net Purchases made by authorized users will count toward the primary cardmember’s qualifying spend. Loyalty Points earned as a result of this benefit will be posted to the primary cardmember’s AAdvantage Account 6-8 weeks after meeting the spend requirement. Full details on AAdvantage® status qualification and Loyalty Points are located at
aa.com/aadvantage This benefit may not be achievable based on the assigned credit line and ability to maintain that credit line.
To me, it sounds like its a recurring annual benefit. Why would they even mention "Beginning March 1, 2023 ..." Just that this first period includes Jan& Feb but moving forward its just Mar-Mar.
But also, I am no English major
I'm hoping it stays. Very useful and makes me put spend on the cc
