But confirmed SWUs for international flights are very hard to come-by now. I am also not sure if I will travel so much in 2025 and beyond. So, to maintain the status (that is, to have access to EXP agents), I have to pay for J. Admirals Club membership is a good option, but I am already a member (paid-by-points). So beside SWUs and Admirals Club, what are your favorite LP choice at both 175,000 and 250,000 points?

Thanks.
I have a 90% success rate using SWUs this year. I've never requested them more than 24 hours in advance of the flight, and hope to clear day of.

Now to actually read your post, I'd take the miles. Still great partner award rates if you can find them.
