Max out $1,500/quarter Freedom is small, but doing $20,000+/month or more on multiple CCs is a different story.

I am sorry... but I am not breaking any laws nor am I doing something that is against the terms of the card.
Can't they say that 5x isn't on gc purchases if they wanted to? they can easily do that like many others who apply such rules.
I am not cheating anyone. This comes at quite a price for me at time spent.
If they indeed shut you down over something like this and they say that it is because they don't like your usage then they are the one at fault as I did not break any rules.
That is irrelevant of course because you won't win that argument with them as they probably are allowed to close account for whatever reason they care to (unsafe usage for example which has no real definition).
But as far as thinking this isn't legitimate? I beg to differ.
