this would mean midway through my journey I would become *S, so would I earn the 25% bonus for any miles earned above 16,000.

I recall that the *S and *G status bonus applies to all miles earned in the month. This could mean that if you are made *S during a month, then when they come to post the bonus at the month end run, then you get the bonus on all miles.
Sure that isn't the intention but it looks like one of those facts that the IT guys could have overlooked or was too expensive to put a fix in for and so might just stay....watch out for the postings!
