OP said "But going forward I expect to fly them only 3-4 times a year, and will generally try to find my way into F either by paying or using miles."
So if they almost always fly F anyway, free bags via credit card are probably not a big draw.
I keep my cards for the companion certs as PC is generally "good enough" on all current AS routes, and I may need some of the EQMs from spend for status.
