I agree, upgrading and F awards will be even more limited in the future with reduced F cabins. I would be okay with the eVoucher approach, but noone should forget PPB, which is an important customer loyalty programm for small and midsize companies and has its clear benefits in F (ratios for awards, upgrades as well as collecting PPB miles).
Also, I don't think the SEN award guarantee buys you into F. My understanding was, that a SEN can buy the HON award guarantee once a year spending tons of miles. The HON award guarantee however is limited to ECO and BIZ.
