Best strategy for whether airport dining and trip-delay coverage matter more than raw points?

My biggest travel pain is irregular operations, not earning rate spreadsheets.

I want the card setup that softens delays, overnight disruptions, and expensive airport food.

I am starting to think the lifestyle perks matter more than the theoretical points upside.

I try to keep it simple: solve the biggest pain point first, then add extra optimization only if I keep up with it naturally.

My rule is that if a setup takes too much manual maintenance, I replace it with something simpler even if the theoretical upside is lower.
