Yes. PRG isn't easy.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Does downgrading my Amex Biz Gold to a no fee Green Amex allow me to apply for a new Gold Card, Or does it retain a status as a gold card in regard to the 12 month language?

The 12 month language is based on SSN so you cant

Do you need 12 months without the card? Is it better for me to close the card completely?

Im confused :  is it a) 12 months from being approved for the product,  - which would allow me to close the card after 12 months and reapply ; or  b) 12 months from having the product - and i need to wait 12 months after closing to apply again? Regardless if a) or b) would downgrading to green make it as if i dont have the Gold anymore?

are you looking at a primary card or an AU card?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

The Green Card would be your best option ($95). Few (very few) have reported success downgrading to a CC.
