If the platinum elite bonus applies only to award and not staus miles this is going to make it very difficult for many loyal royal wingers to stay top tier. 75000 miles a year is the equivalant of having to fly there and back to Cape Town 7 times in economy or 3.5 times in business. Hence I am not sure that there statement that no one will be dissapointed is not a bit optimistic!

Service points should be multiplied by at least 3.2 times in order to maintain status for the already promised time.
