Applying for a card that doesn't have a great sign up bonus--especially with a low monthly spend like yours and limited time frame--is a waste of pull, time, and brand, IMHO, and by brand I mean you can only have so many Amex cards total. There are much more valuable Amex products than BCP, but it's up to you, of course.
I appreciate your insight. I have an EIN, so nothing to worry about there. I'm open to reconsidering just about everything, including the BCP.
Also, I got the Ink Bold today, so the Vanilla/Bluebird churning will commence in about a week when that arrives. The V/B combo eliminates any spend problems, too, so I'm not worried about an SPG spend in the future.
