Are there any drawbacks to those programs? I.e. they're the easiest to get *G, but human nature tells me there must be a downside somewhere :-)

Can you maybe direct me to somewhere on the site where I can read up on posts to compare them?
yes, correct on the airlines.
correct on star gold

Drawbacks ...Each program has its own quirks.
I suggest you browse the last several pages of this thread. You will see some discussion.
Aegean is generally a very good program for low mileage flyers.
