There's also a number of gotchas there as it's comparing mileage pricing to "fully refundable" revenue tickets, not non-refundable ones. They also mention in the "same fare class" and not just cabin. Which is naturally confusing as AS does not (yet) have one-to-one matching revenue to award classes (unlike Delta who does on awards to/from North America).
