A 2% cash back card like the Fidelity Amex. That's the benchmark I use for when I decide what cards to put spend on. Sure, I can earn a mile, but is that mile worth 2¢ to me?

Bonus categories are moot here since I don't know a card that gets >1X for AMEX GCs. Also doesn't take into account signup bonus spend. I guess one could use the SPG AMEX as a benchmark if you value those points > 2¢ each.
