Assuming all prior benefits stay the same (although one could argue the new Streaming/online services credits are same but BETTER)

$200 more in annual fees, bummer, monies is monies.

+$60 in additional streaming credits per year (and adding YTP and YTTV is a plus for ME at least) since I don't use it all as it is, i'll probably unlock over $150 in value now
+$120 for Uber ONE (which I have used for several years and it does unlock value on some services and uber eats and I think still prioritization)
+$400 for RESY - a bit harder to use but there ARE a couple restaurants that I know of in HI, CA, NY, MA that we tend to go to soe that will add at least $200 a year in value

I'm already to the good at least the increase $470.. so it's still able to keep it's place in the wallet - for me at least.
