"But some flight attendants worry that when passengers learn that they could get additional miles by complaining onboard, it could lead to a whole new array of inflight problems for flight attendants who are on the frontline if a situation should arise in the air that calls for de-escalation."

That quote is quite telling in what's wrong with the attitude of FA's on American IMO. Oh, the bother of someone complaining when I'm trying to wait for a situation that need de-escalation!

Delta is doing this already.  My wife and two children (last week) each got 2,500 miles due to a foul odor (suspected cleaning fluid).  I know, not a mileage windfall, but it did surprise us.
