With RR 2.0, though, you can't combine points and segments for CP qualification any more. So for those who are close to a CP on segments but nowhere close on points, transferring from DC will no longer do any good. Only those who are close to a CP on points will benefit (beyond the value of the points themselves) by transferring from DC.
