Thanks for the welcome, I have been reading on here for about a month. I get many of my miles from my Delta AmEx Platinum, and usually fly about 20k miles per year. So my upgrade options are not great with SM status.

Last I knew they were treated as Domestic relative upgrades. That may have changed recently but as of 8 months ago (I got an EUA to first on a MEX trip) they were.
