Absolutely nothing I said indicates otherwise.
1) Based solely on the OP's post and their statement that they get a card every 7-10 months, I think it is more likely that their score is not damaged by this.

2) You made the unequivocal statement that churning cards damages one's credit score, and that statement is completely incorrect.

The OP asked if anyone else employs this tactic. I sure do (not with the RR card, but with AA, AS, and Priority Club cards. I get maybe 10-25 cards each year and my credit score is the same (very high) now as it was 2 years ago when I started monitoring my score.
