Yes, it's alphabet soup, it's confusing and it can lead to all sorts of problems with confusion over the fare rules. On the other hand, CO offers Z and R discounted First Class fares, which book, conveniently, into Z and R inventory, and are "real" first class fares. None of this -UP bullshlt, which doesn't fool anyone.
Well, I guess it reflects AA's general attitude toward pax "We've YUPed our fares, so YUP yours, too".

Cheers.
