Comparisons of OneWorld, SkyTeam, *A Silver level programs

I will be starting afresh after a year of no status on any airline (sacrilege on these boards!).

1. My travel patterns are mostly domestic (leisure) with about one International in a year (work).
2. I fly coach on domestic.
3. I fly Business on International.
4. I am based in the Bay Area (CA).
5. International mostly to BLR (via FRA or SIN) or SIN.
6. Domestic destinations are DTW, BOS

With this travel pattern, the best i can make is Silver (2p) or Gold (1p) on any airline's FF program.

Since I travel SQ international, I have been considering switching to UA for domestic, thereby stayign within the *A family.

I have been looking at Blondebomber's *A comparison chart. Even that doesn't reach down to the lowly levels of a Silver.

Questions:
1. is there a similar comparison for OneWorld and SkyTeam carriers?
2. is there a comparison between silver levels on carriers in *A, OneWorld and SkyTeam?

Any other opinions of a good Silver level program would be most welcome.

Note 1: I did search, but couldn't dig up anything.
Note 2: Moderator: If this does not belong in the UA forum, please feel free to move it - to where? *A Forum?
