In judging such a person, I would need to know how much he flies every year. For example, it is not hard to see why someone's first priority might be to maintain status. Therefore, up to 100K miles/year, the temptation to resist using awards is not as bizarre as it may appear at first.

We also have to remember that meFIRST has presented us with the viewpoint of an Ex talking about an Ex, and even more importantly the two are loyal to different airlines.
