I would think there's probably some middle ground here (let people rollover a certain amount of MQD, but cap it). But not going to lose any sleep over whether or not DL considered that. I will convert my MQM into 24K MQDs and then probably largely stop spending on Reserve card except for DL purchases as I will hit DM with existing MQD balance.
