The purchases made that you receive the $300 travel credit (or $85/$100 trusted traveler program credits) for do count towards the minimum spend, but the annual fee does not.
The card is made of the same material as the CSP, and is being shipped UPS Next Day Air Saver to everyone after production (currently (8/26) appears to have about a 3-day delay after approval before shipping.)

If you had the Platinum and PRG before Amex put a stop to backdating, you might have actually been at 3/24.

Given that the link people were using said NOTHING about any sign up bonus, I don't think any lawsuits would get very far.

I assume nobody knows, but I'm wondering if spend on the $4000 minimum is eligible for the $300 travel credit

hence, you should be planning to spend $4.4k (300 reimbursed travel, 100 reimbursed global entry)

Each year, automatically receive up to $300 in statement credits as reimbursement for travel-related purchases charged to your card.
This suggests to me that the $300 statement credit CANNOT be used for pure travel expenses (like airfare, hotel rooms, etc.) but ONLY for travel incidentals like bag fees, etc.
My hunch is made even stronger by the fine print which gives bag fees as an example:
For example, if you pay for baggage fees, but the airline does not post the transaction until after your December statement date, the cost of the baggage fees will be allocated towards the following year's Annual Travel Credit maximum of $300.

3. $300 Annual Travel Credit: A statement credit will automatically be applied to your account when your card is used for purchases in the travel category, up to $300 in statement credits annually ("annually" means the year beginning with your account open date through the first December statement date of that same year, and each 12 billing cycles starting after your December statement date through the following December statement date). Purchases are when you, or an authorized user, use a card to make purchases of products and services, minus returns or refunds. Buying products and services with your card, in most cases, will count as a purchase; however, the following types of transactions won't count: balance transfers, cash advances, travelers checks, foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers or similar cash-like transactions, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips, race track wagers or similar betting transactions, any checks that access your account, overdraft advances, interest, unauthorized or fraudulent charges, and fees of any kind, including an annual fee, if applicable. We do not determine whether merchants correctly identify and bill transactions as being of a certain type. For more information about Chase rewards categories, see www.Chase.com/RewardsCategoryFAQs. Statement credit(s) will post to your account the same day your travel category purchase posts to your account and will appear on your monthly credit card billing statement within 1-2 billing cycles. Qualifying purchases made by authorized users on your account will be included in the $300 Annual Travel Credit. Maximum statement credit accumulation for the Annual Travel Credit is $300 annually. The Annual Travel Credit will be issued for the year in which the transaction posts to your account, through your December statement date. For example, if you pay for baggage fees, but the airline does not post the transaction until after your December statement date, the cost of the baggage fees will be allocated towards the following year's Annual Travel Credit maximum of $300.

Bag fees are also "purchases in the travel category".
It doesn't say "ALL PURCHASES..." or "ANY PURCHASES".
I think this will head to court if Chase refuses to credit the $300 to airfare or hotel purchases.
The fine print clears it up. Anything in the travel category.
