I personally think TA proves the ugly american theory.

Also wish you could tell what level of room people paid for and what they expected for the money.
Yes... but please note this happens on FT all the time... folks get elite status by paying only heavily discounted fares and then whine whine and whine because they didnt get some silly additional perk when flying on an award F ticket. The "difficult" customer syndrome is something that is more common than we all think.
