I spoke with a contact at UA (not Mileage Plus) and gave them the link to this thread. That person said that they were shocked at the reaction to this. This information has been passed on to the chief of strategy at mileage plus.

Honestly, the only way I see this policy changing is if high-revenue travelers (i.e., the UGS types) complain about the change. Having low-fare 1K SWU users gripe about the new policy would be of little effect IMHO, since this was the very practice that UA was seeking to eliminate.
