It makes sense in the context I used to reliably upgrade to CE for the 80 TPs, but never would without some kind of points incentive.
I must be missing something. How is this a sweet spot? Hard to be accurate, I know as the remaining nTPs are based on the fare. But if you were to earn maybe a total of 300 nTPs for a CE return, 7 returns would get you to less than a third of the way to Silver. Even at 400nTPs, you are looking at not even 40% of the way there. The oTPs, the same trips would get you nearly the whole way.

Please correct me!
