AS used to offer twice daily SFO-PHX, now they're down to a single E75 (and only 5 days a week much of the year). As others have mentioned, Hawaii flights from the bay area have been absolutely gutted. The bright spot is that since AS is not really able to sustain an elite customer base in the bay area any longer, 75K upgrades have become even easier.
Those of us 75k and 100k elites in the bay area will have had a difference experience than the occasional AS flyer in the PNW. I don't think either group will change their minds and that's fine.
