Yes

Can't remember any recent ones, while Amex and Citi have them every other month.

Please explain why you wouldn't. Is 50k miles with Delta, no fuel charges to TLV and 50k to South America.

That's theoretical. When last did you find DL availability NYC-TLV (not on Shabbos or Yomtov)?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I've actually done OK with FlyingBlue, but I would reserve UR for UA transfers.

That's like saying that amex is valuable because you can fly JFK-BRU in J for 36k RT on SN. It's a great, albeit nonexistent, redemption.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Regardless of their great uses, you're still better off using amex or citi for them
