I was wondering about this and searched here first, then went digging on dl.com.
It seems to me that if you have 2 DL Plat Amex cards (one biz and one personal), you will be exempt from the moment your combined spend goes over 25K.
It's a pleasantly, non-irritating aspect of this program.
The counter on the website is definitely only showing one card, so I suppose it might require a call or tweet to get it applied, but that seems pretty clear from the rules, right?
Anyone have any experience with this yet? (or is it too early in the year?)
The exact wording is:
