This would just be a smaller version of DL saying they'll allow you to pay them for no reason other than status.
However, for some customers--namely those who only need a small number of MQDs and have enough MQMs--this path undercuts DL's personalized prices to buy status by a lot. For a DM, the savings could be several thousand dollars.
