the idea was to keep all that stuff in one place. While there are multiple links, they all contribute to the same topic. My instinct and the research we did says that multiple OMNIs, even with different names would be confuding and create bad search demands. Off-topic is off topic. Why not keep it only on Miles? Also in the research we did we found that there is likely to be a growing group of FlyerTalkers who only live on the Travel board. They have mild interest in miles, but are more comfortable in the General TravelTalk area. We wanted a few features that could exist regardless of what you may call your home page on FlyerTalk. OMNI as well as Trip Reports are likely two of those you'll see common among all the boards.

We'll certainly review any and all comments here and also ask that the new TalkBoard when it is elected review things like this that have come up. Please continue to bring these type of thoughts forward.
