OP could be OW Emerald with AA, but yeah no status = virtually no chance, but hey you might just get lucky and hit the 0.0000001%.

I could imagine only when both J and PEY were wide wide open and Y was heavily oversold, which they will start picking single pax in PEY and op up them (all the elites in PEY already upgraded) to J so they could use the PEY seats for Y->PEY op ups.
