If you don't have status, the only other disadvantage is that saver seats are completely non-changeable and non-refundable. Regular fares allow same day change (for a fee) and changes to another date...

It's pretty hard for Alaska to compete head to head with United between two of their hub airports. SFO-DCA is probably the only real moneymaker.
