We are in sync. I think that the BofA program is compelling for young investors, moderately affluent, and wealthy customers. That is fantastic. You have probably heard my rants about banks looking to youth/potential for growth.

The Citibank offering is not compelling to anyone except those that want to get several Priority Pass cards for cheap OR those that are loyal to Citi and want to tryout the card.
