I'd expect (or at least hope) that they'll still count miles flown on award travel.
Wouldn't that be double dipping? You earned the mile toward MM earning the skymile the first time, if that's how it was earned, then turn around and use the skymile for award travel and get credit again? I think that's why they didn't used to credit aware travel toward status before, they only brought that bag during Covid to get people flying or spending down that growing balance of miles...
