I looked at Amex Plat, but wasn't convinced. No Centurion lounges at the domestic airports I frequent. ORD/EWR primarily. And the priority pass offerings at these airports are not accessible. (Intl terminals, etc).

For the ~$250 versus ~$35, I don't see the value.

If I was transiting SFO/LAS...sure.
