Personally I would take a nonstop in a recliner over an EWR connection any day, but obviously opinions differ. I just don't have the time to connect, and recliners are... fine?

Right.
At least for GS, I have never failed EWR-SFO upgrade.
When I get downgraded to 1K or less, I'll need to be more flexible. Carefully select the flights with flat bed to get upgraded.
Do we know when flat bed will return to BOS-SFO? It's such a tough upgrade for 737.

Having 28-32 seats in IPTE 777 is better than 16 seats on the ex-CO 757.

The 11:20am (UA477) departing BOS is on a 752 until February 10th. After that it is all MAX 9's. The red-eye from SFO (UA1925) is also a 752 through the 9th. I don't see the 752 on the schedule again until May 6th (when every flight becomes a 752) but I assume that will change. As a side note, I'm also seeing 738's on the schedule starting March 27th but only select flights.

Maybe near zero for 1K and below?

Did about 15 roundtrip SFO to BOS flights in 2021, noticed last few weeks/months the lie flats are randomly showing up (with last minute aircraft changes). Both redeye and then outbound as recently as last Wednesday on way to Singapore was as nice surprise. Most of 2021 until the fall were NOT lie flat and course upgrades impossible unless you went to IAD or EWR. That said, they also removed a few flights for return next week so now back to one morning / two redeyes back to BOS.
