Chase has a history of doing this. They will close every credit card and bank account you have with them. You will be allowed to transfer your points out (IIRC they either settled or lost a lawsuit about this during a previous round of shutdowns, and now their policy gives you some set amount of time to transfer your points after your account gets closed) and you will never be allowed to open another Chase card or bank account again, for life.
Those who do not study history are doomed to repeat it. OP is flying a bit close to the sun, I think. For, what, $20k worth of points per year? Not worth it.
