My DM, SkyClub cards are already in my phone as well as the free beverage certificates (which I never use). What's the point of sending that think envelope of stuff? Maybe those few DM members can request the "brag tags" if it's so important to them and just stop cluttering the mailboxes for the rest of us?
If you show them your phone, they will tell you, anyone can download fake cards on internet they did not have way to validate your card (or can validate only China Eastern/Southern) in the lounge and write on a paper pad foreign Skyteam card # (with your boarding pass info)...

Some lounge (mostly small one in China), continue to ask for the skyteam physical card.

you guys are a piece of work....
The issue is not the compression but that is what companies do that begin discontinuing a name or a service. They shrink the old and raise the presentation of the new,
From an old guy that was employed or consultant to over 100 companies.

I found it interesting that in times past, DL made a big deal of being MM on their tags and they have slowly been reducing the size and prominence. You folks took that as an opportunity to Brag about how little it means to you and therefor the OP must be a nut job and "can only mean that he values staring at the tags to tell himself that he is important" and that " you have your priorities in life all out of wack!"
What up with you people?? If you have any person to person social skills, I'd be glad to buy you a beer at a SkyClub, talk about life's priorities and anything else, I can assure you that your assumptions are messed up.

We all find some form of this addicting, or else we wouldn't be on FT, but there is such a thing as being over the top.

Anyone who says that they are unimportant obviously does nto travel far off the beat and path very often. Just last month in Vietnam I tried showing my virtual card at the VN lounge and they would NOT accept it, much like FBPlatinum wrote above about China. Tags maybe not so important, card is.

I throw out my tags the day I get them. In fact, whenever Delta comes around with that survey about how important is the hard Medallion package, I always tell them to stop sending them. My DM, SkyClub cards are already in my phone as well as the free beverage certificates (which I never use). What's the point of sending that think envelope of stuff? Maybe those few DM members can request the "brag tags" if it's so important to them and just stop cluttering the mailboxes for the rest of us?
But, DL management is going to solve that problem in January 2019.

Wrong thread, try here:
