Certainly UA is always looking for revenue boosts, but is your theory that UA has culled the OPM GS ranks to reduce the number of Y>PN upgrades from these folks on the belief that many of the now-former GS will instead play the upgrade lottery by buying OAR instead, thereby increasing UA's net revenue from such customers?
