There are occasions MS makes a whole lot of sense and well worth the trouble as long as one really understands what one is doing and the risk entailed, then try to minimize the risk. That is the primary reason I mention to you the grocery store packaged cards are frequently subj to frauds. The Simon's or Macerich's are much safer. If one is just doing it to meet minimum spend not to earn category bonus, the cards sold at the malls are much safer. That is all.
I guess you missed the statement below from my last reply. How you twisted anything I said into judging anyone is beyond me. I am pretty sure some people who MS don't have legit expenses to get the points/miles they need, AGAIN, I do for most spends and in this case for
(FOR ME) buying $10k at Costco is a lot easier and has much less chance of causing me any headaches.
Others can do as they wish, I am not judging anyone nor do I care what they do.

Now this is way off topic so I'm not responding to any MS posts going forward. I swear this is some sort of competition for you.
