Two reasons:
1) Amex SPG only gets 1 point per dollar on airfare, while CSP gets 2. I doubt anyone values Starwood points that much higher.
2) Also, Citi and Chase have better built-in travel insurance than Amex, although read the T&C before you rely on that.

Doesn't it depend on what you want to do with your accumulated miles and / or points? Look at the airlines and hotels to which UR and SPG transfer. Look at the transfer rates. Then you will have make an informed decision.
