Indeed I think the partner cards are a easy/low cost way to reward top tier flyers as it doesnt cost much to the giving airline
if the giftee doesnt fly much its a no cost if they fly alot then most will credit to that program this hiving them more i come at the same time
much like the status challenges that require xxx miles in xxx months 👍👍
