All that said, the last few years, I have lost a bunch of SWU to expiration....
I think it is a good use of a SWU. I’d consider saving them IF you had some W flights booked. If you don’t, and don’t want to run the risk of losing the SWUs to expiration, I’d use them to upgrade to F. Even given the marginal delta in service level between J and F.
