Yes, but I won't.

My point is that some stupid general member (who got a FF account at least ten days ago and has earned at least one mile) could purchase the maximum number of MQMs and MQDs, but still fail to qualify for any status, therefore not getting any rollover either. It would be a pure donation to DL. Last year this wasn't apparently possible as the personalized offers seemed to protect such people from their own stupidity.
