I just don't follow why anyone cares about this, or any other questions about what is coded as "travel"; if you have any doubt about your ability to spend $300 on "travel" of some kind in a year (however it is defined) then this isn't the right card (or forum - FLYERtalk, after all) for you.
Same goes for the $4000 minimum spend; if you have any concern about hitting it, with or without the $300 reimbursement counting, this isn't the right card for you.
Separately, I'm going to walk into my Chase branch before work today and hopefully have a good datapoint to report.
