Perhaps instead of "takeaway" you can put "Dan's Take" or "My Take", along with a thumbs up or thumbs down symbol for each point.

How do you get to $50?

AF $400, Travel Credit $325.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Here's my thoughts: I would love if the post had a short synopsis or "Dan's Recommendation". Something that takes all the info and distills it for someone like me, who is not a major credit card guru and won't be able to follow the entire post.

Something like: "Dans Take: If you are a heavy traveler who want's the greatest access, go with the xxxxxx or the xxxxxx. But if you only travel from time to time and would like the perks when they are available, xxxxxxx or xxxxxxx would be a great choice to consider, especially with their sweet transfer policy for xxxxxxxx."

Maybe simplify the title to something like:
Which credit card to get for lounge access

Too dense for the proofreaders ;D

I would point out where one sees the Saver icon. Took me a while to find it (on mobile).

https://www.dansdeals.com/more/dans-commentary/personal-messages/harmed-people-thoughts-shared-shul-boruch-taub-ben-chafetz/

I think you should change:

"Over the past few days I attended the funerals of 40 year old Boruch Taub Z”L and 45 year old Ben Chafetz Z”L, along with countless other members of the community."

To:

"Over the past few days, I having joined countless other members of the community in attending the funerals of 40 year old Boruch Taub Z”L and 45 year old Ben Chafetz Z”L"
