So $5000 for 50K points, not enough for diamond status.

I don't think that is correct here is the part of the T&C you are referring to.
Base Points earned will count toward Diamond Elite tier qualification. Bonus Points earned on Base Points do not count toward Elite tier qualification.
it's like EQMS and RDMS. There is a difference between bonus and base points and the T&C makes it very clear that that bonus base points counts towards tier status, while bonus points seperate from base points do not.
The rate referenced specifically mentions double
base points, not double points, or double bonus points.
