On short stops (flights around west coast) I don't really care about upgrades (which actually wouldn't happen anyway due to wife having no status) and prefer 2 free checked bags for each pax on the booking.
It depends on how you book your travel. If your spouse is on the same PNR as you, they are eligible for DL C+/FC upgrades at your status level. But, yes, if you are just buying FC/D1, having DL status is not going to provide much you wouldn't get anyways. And for anyone who is less than a DL Plat, the C+/FC upgrades are going to be a lot more hit and miss.
