TLFL has a brief comparison of the alliances. It’s very brief but my takeaway was that status on other alliances is also difficult if you want lounge access and checked bags on cheapo tickets.

TPs on reward flights does make Virgin Silver very reachable with just one UC cash flight. But SkyTeam Elite is next to useless so why bother?

STE is far from useless. DL, AF, KLM all have smallprint at airports under their Sky Priority signs also inviting STE. I use DCA regularly so flying with DL I get priority check in, security and boarding.
