Dude, we don’t even let our Mosaics sit in Mint if the cabin crew aren’t Mint FA’s. My flight was upgauged last month, had a number of Mosaic frequent flyers on it, and that cabin went 100% empty. No wonder they leave for status elsewhere. You think DAL is making medallions ride in the back with an empty F class cabin?!

Preserve product integrity/image? Or use all available resources and maximize resource utilization? I would personally prefer the latter.

And there are particularities about the Mint seats and galley that could become a problem if the FAs aren't trained to use them and/or help the customers use them.
I really don't think it is entirely a Mint product image preservation thing.

I can imagine people getting upgraded into the mint seats on a non-catered/non mint FA flight… the *****fest that would ensue. “Omg I’m in “mint” and all they game me were the same chips the normal people in the back got?! Boycott JB!”

Yep, even if they were told in advance, and when the flight attendants go through and do compliance checks on complicated seats and suites that they aren't trained on....

Wow, so there is a whole sub-category of FA's that are trained for Mint/seats that only they know how to operate and/or do the service? First airline I've heard of that does it that way.
