Cause and effect, cause and effect.
Personally, while I also got a stash of AA miles, I dont find them as useful as chase UR points which I can redeem on all three alliances, including SQ suites, and hyatt. So let's say you want to goto Europe in the summer. You can search across 15+ airlines for space, including F cabins on UA, AA, BA, SQ, LH, EK. For Labor day, I used chase UR on BA F for outbound and SQ F for inbound.
