route changes (and DEQM)

Was able to get me ORD-SEA-SFO routing changed to direct ORD-SFO. In trying to figure out which segment(s) to actually get credited to M+. I realized that the Y ticket I now have will give 1.5 miles, but will these extra miles also go toward DEQM?

This is how I have it figured:

ORD-SEA-SFO
1721+678 = 2399 (x2)= 4798

ORD-SFO (Yfare)
1846+923= 2769 (x2) = 5538
or
1846 (x2= 3692) + 923 = 4615

So knowing about the fare class bonus and it's relationship to DEQM will determine which segments I pursue for credit. Granted it's not alot of difference but I'm curious all the same.

Thanks. As I've no need for EQS I'll just stick with the original routing for mileage accrual.
