Let's say I need to go to D.C. tomorrow afternoon. Cheapest ticket is $139.
Or, I can keep the $139, use 3,000 AGR points, for a value of
4.6 cents/point.

Say that first class overseas ticket costs 90,000 miles. At the same redemption value of 4.6 cents/mile, it would have to be for a ticket I'd otherwise be content paying $4,100 for, which I would never do. YMMV though.
