Delayed bag 16 hours

Flying yesterday XXX-ATL-CHA. Arrived in ATL 15 minutes early giving Delta 50 minutes to get my bag onto my ATL-CHA which was a mainline B717. Bag did not make my flight and instead was expedited to last flight of the night getting in at 11:20 pm. 2 hours later.

I did not want to wait at airport so asked delta to deliver bag next day. Bag arrived today about 2pm. So about 16 hours delay. I'm only here for 3 days so that's a decent portion of my trip.

I am staying with family so I will not be submitting any reimbursement requests for out of pocket expenses. What is a reasonable expectation on compensation? My original flight was $435 so I figure about half that in a voucher. I'm thinking $200 voucher? I do not want miles. Period. I have a ton already.
