The funniest thing about this example provided by DL is the idea that two Golds would even be competing for a (realistically non existent) upgrade lol

(Yes, I know some Silver may chime in to say, but they were upgraded on a 7 am LGA-BOS shuttle flight on Christmas Day… but as a lowly Plat my place on the upgrade list is usually around #10 with 0 or 1 F seat available.)
