My understanding was that instrument upgrades on routes with complimentary upgrades aren't prioritized. No matter the upgrade method it's all based on status and LP (ie if I applied a SWU for a friend on JFK-LAX, they'd still be below all status members requesting complimentary upgrades). If I'm wrong that would actually be good news.
