I'm mixed about this. Maybe they could allow a certain amount of status earning (like the UA MP Visa that allows a certain amount of EQM earning, I think), but I can't imagine NZ would allow you to earn, e.g. Gold or Gold Elite status via GP.
Think of all the people who can very easily channel business expenditure onto a credit card - instant Gold Elite or Black(?) status in a month or two!
