The one thing that AC could do to please SEs who fly in J would be to allow 2 choices rather than 1 for the MBs at the 70K, 90K, 110K, 130K, 150K, 170K and 190K levels by making eUps optional rather than mandatory. Make it truly a la carte rather than timidly hang on to a remnant of the past.
Expiring eUps basically tells me that AC neither understand nor value me completely. Definitely a pet peeve.
