Why do people want to use Citi/AA to earn AA miles for lifetime status? SPG Amex will earn miles faster (1:1.25) and they still account for lifetime status right?

The only thing i can think of is that with Citi Gold your Citi/AA annual fee is waived. But still I will rather pay $65 on SPG to get miles faster!
