What matters most for whether airport dining and trip-delay coverage matter more than raw points: perks, points, or simplicity?
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 want the card setup that softens delays, overnight disruptions, and expensive airport food. is exactly the right target. The best systems are the ones you will still use after ten trips, not just one enthusiastic weekend.
I am starting to think the lifestyle perks matter more than the theoretical points upside. is the part most advice ignores, and it usually ends up being the reason people quit a tool or workflow.
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.
