This could be some fun answers.

If better means cheaper, I think you'll come out ahead (and with fewer trips) via the scenic route to Singapore. But there's a six day minimum stay.

Edited to add that the "scenic route" could be DEN-SEA-LAX-SFO-NRT-SIN, which appears to be valid.

About 10,905 EQMs each way (10,735 actual miles without the 500 mile minimum on LAXSFO...max permitted actual miles is 10,876.)

Probably <$1000 per 20K EQMs (and per 40K EQMs with the doubling.)
