Agreed. Here's my example. Yesterday, I found award seats on Austrian Airlines in business class using United Airline miles. UR points can be moved to United 1:1. It cost me 70K points plus $68 for a ticket that sells for 5287 euros/$6448. That's a value of 7.5 cents per point. And it's the ideal routing for me. I am absolutely delighted with this award redemption. It's why I value UR points.
