Up to 500k HHonors points from Citi HHonors Visa cards is flat???

Ok, that's not 500k per offer, but that card is churnable, and at least for some people two-at-a-time -- using the same two-browser-type-trick as for Citi AA -- every 65ish days, so dividing 365 by 65 I get 5 double apps per year theoretically possible, while means 10 apps, which means 500k total per year if you can churn this card to the maximum. And even if two-at-time doesn't work for you, 250k per year is not so bad, is it?

Doesn't churnability have to be taken into account to determine how good an offer is?
