If you view it as a 2% (minimum, depending upon how you value MR points) rebate card with no annual fee...AND it preserves your MR points if you decide to cancel other AMEX MR cards, then it makes sense to obtain the card and hold it forever (or until AMEX changes the T&Cs.) A self-referral bonus is icing on the cake.
