I'd argue that something

somewhere down-range at the gun range.
if you're chasing another status then this is a really simple decision.
this is suddenly a completely different discussion than what we've been talking about, and honestly if you're putting that level of spend on any DL branded card I think you need to really re-evaluate your life choices.
It's business spend on the Business card, so the result (after $150k) isn't
that much different than what Chase would sort out to yield (since at some point, my ability to meaningfully use the resulting points/miles over at e.g. Hyatt becomes constrained and the night-credit bonuses effectively run out) while the super-status thresholds are vague. Bear in mind that this is 100% "organic" spend (nothing manufactured).
but you already have unlimited skyclub visits in this scenario, so again,another extremely weird hair-splitting scenario. IDK man, I think you're way overcomplicating everything in this discussion.
I mean...have you
seen FlyerTalk?
