There are plenty of people and bloggers that have plenty of cards, have been doing this for a while, and still seem pretty clueless about some things.

+1 No one knows everything . The people who think they do , are dangerous IMO .

My friend signed up for Jetblue to be his airline to get the $200 aircraft credit. Can he buy a $200 GC and have the money reimbursed to his personal plat cc?

He can switch to Delta and do PGGM.

I would speculate you're not going to get the fastest turn around times on New Years Eve/New Years Day

isn't there a way of downgrading the platinum to a different card, that way it doesn't register in their system that you ever had a platinum card, you can then re-apply for the 100k offer
Why would you think such a thing?
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Hi, if I lets say I applied now and got approved over the phone or online, and I want to use the priority pass - lounges- in like two days, is that possible (to use it before getting the physical card)? Thanks

Do I have to enroll my card for the Global Entry credit? Or does it credit automatically after the charge posts?

When you purchase GE, it will be credited to your account.
