Right, but the partner sites are currently paying for RDM. It's not clear at all that those RDM will also be 1:1 with LP. If spending on an actual Citi AA CC will be capped at 1 or 2 LP per dollar, it's really hard to imagine that spending $100 at a Dining or Shopping partner will generate 5 or more LP per dollar. But we'll see.
