Agreed. That would be my fear as well.
I also have mixed feelings on trumping status based on fare class. One one hand, that one guy that trumps an upgrader might be that once a year flyer who happened to pay 4 digits to get premium service that day. On the other hand, the upgrader likely spent well in excess of 5 digits over the course of the year for the privlege to sit in C or F. Which customer is actually more valuable to United?
