Why does it have to be anything more than that? I use my hyatt credit card exclusively for hyatt properties along with the occasional other spend when AMEX isn't taken somewhere, which is very rare.

There will always be better point options on other types of spend with all the different cards - call it tradeoffs. If you are expecting a single card to be the end all be all of your spend, you're going to be disappointed with ALL cards.

IMHO, the purpose of the hyatt credit card is to PUSH spend to hyatt properties, which they may get with 3 points a dollar plus added bonuses on top of "winter promo" type bonuses.
