I disagree. I have no interest in fungible dollars when the alternative is miles which can be used to get outsized return on experiences.
I have plenty of ways of making money, and trying to optimize for a %age of cash back is not particularly interesting.
Miles and points on the other hand can be used to get experiences that would otherwise be completely out of question due to their price. It adds something meaningful to my life.
Flying to Australia in first class on Emirates is more memorable than making $1,500 of cash-back.
