LOL...No. I have one too, and app'ed right around this time last year. When my fee is up (this month, I think), I'll definitely call in and see if Sync is open to some horse trading.
(since I seem to be the only one updating the thread)...

It's Synchrony so there's a "Love Button" to ask for increases that may work. They are kind of notable for being squirrelly though (they have a lot of store cards and subprime in the portfolio, so they clamp down on limits hard during bad economic times).
I got approved for $2500 last year with a not-great credit profile. It was nowhere near my top card then, and it's pretty much at the bottom of the pile right now.

So I called in to cancel and got offered 15k miles on 6k spend over 3 months (it's 2k a month for 3 months) on top of the annual fee waiver I already had. I took it even though I am kinda "eh" on it. This turns the CX Synchrony card into a 3.5x card for general spend if you hit those numbers (I probably can, though I have to juggle it with another signup bonus), and a 4x card for dining/international spend. (There was also a $100 statement credit, but I would buy AsiaMiles alllll daaaaay at $100 for 15,000 miles, the miles are the correct play.)

Update: I hit my 2k a month for 3 months spend on the CX card, and the 15k hit right alongside the other miles for my spend during the month. Without a fairly generous offer this card isn't at the top of my wallet, but I'm on course to try and book a multicarrier award in J this summer for a 2022 long sabbatical- and to have a lot of miles to burn on that.
