eponymous_coward has pointed out, you'd be paying 1.5 cpm, not 1 cpm. In fact, I'd argue that you'd be paying more than 1.5 cpm, because 1 Bilt point is currently worth more than 1 AS mile (due to the optionality embedded within a transferrable currency like Bilt and other Bilt's valuable transfer partners like Hyatt). An AS mile used to be well worth that price, but not anymore with its recent devaluation.
