This could easily happen as once you have status, there is no real reason to keep crediting to them as burn rates and change rules are not so good
How is it too good to be true? I can't see anything on the program that is "too good to be true"?
I agree that the program is rather weak regarding the earn/burn ratio and spending options. So I would recommend it only if someone primarily cares about status. For collecting miles, it is a waste of money/miles. Therefore there is nothing about the program that is too good to be true.
