But now with the credit card it will cut down on the number of those who drop off without affecting the number of those who will newly qualify.

The end result is more SEs.
I agree with what you are saying. I disagre that this will have a big impact. And I still think it pales in comparison to the false 50K's from premium credit cards. But we're entitled to differing opinions. Have a good day.
