That's fair - and for me the 1.5 CPP on Chase is just a fallback, I typically have been able to redeem for much more through transfer partners.

I do see the benefit of the AMEX Business ecosystem but at least at this point in time I remain wary of going down the business card route since at present my "business" is limited to a couple eBay/Amazon sales a year.
