Given the state of US airline mileage programs becoming increasingly worse places to bank rebate currency from card spend, if I were Goldman or not, I would not want to tie my fortunes up with too much credit exposure to the retail crowd (of UA bank card users) that doesn’t know a bad deal when they see one and continues spending without regard to negative changes in value of the rebate currency.
