It's a great card for milestone spends. I've put mine in a drawer since last month since I've achieved the milestone... Need to think about next year soon!
I thought so too but in reality, Amex points are not really valuable. Every time I use Amex, I am losing money as I could have used my Infinia. 40k points for 4 lakhs is, at best a 3 to 4% reward rate only with transfer to Bonvoy. It's ok if you can use it for mostly multiplier and tax payment etc. I have a Biz Black for tax and Infinia gives rewards on insurance as well. So hard to fund suitable spends. Will meet the milestone this year but not sure if I will bother next year.
So if you compare it to using it on MCCs which give points on infinia, then absolutely the amex cards cannot be compared rewards rate wise. But for areas where cards not give RPs, or for those who don't have premium cards like infinia, and want to experience Amex.. the plat travel as a milestone card and the MRCC as the low fee waiver card are great cards to have.

Good start made.
You will get used to it.
Less luggage, more comfort.
Minimal n suitable CCs, more peace.
(I closed 35 CCs till date... in the last 35+ years of CC journey).
Yes. However after getting the Infinia and Biz Black, I am less interested in other cards. If the fee is 500 or 1k, I will keep it even if it is unused but 6k was a little high. I even asked AU to close my Zenith but they made it LTF strangely. They refused to make it LTF for my wife and closed her Vetta.

Why did you get Tata Neu Plus again?

I changed my mobile number and went through the tedious process of changing the mobile number in each and every bank account and credit cards and UPI apps etc etc. (Except Indusind becoz their customer service sucks and I don't have the energy)
But after this Both my BOB Rupay CC stopped working...the Customer service were clueless and made up random excuses and I gave up.
I thought of getting Federal Bank additional Rupay CC but I have not been able to login to my app after mobile number change (which apparently took numerous Calls and emails and 1.5 months to change them) and I don't have the energy to deal with them again.
I am not eligible for Axis Neo Rupay CC as I hold a Neo Add on MasterCard CC via my father
Yes Bank Rupay additional CC does not give any reward points below 2000 Rs
Kotak is banned
IDFC keeps giving me Wow CC
AU not serviceable
Jupiter Edge CSB not serviceable in my area
ICICI CC is not worth the money
SBI Simplyclick is not available in Rupay variant yet
Was not sure about One Card Rupay variant
So I Zeroed in to Tata Neu Plus CC FYF untill I get a solid Rupay CC

I used to have a huge CC portfolio, but now I have reduced it to bare minimum -
1. Axis Atlas (my primary card) split with Axis Airtel (for Airtel Broadband, BTH, mobile bill etc.)
2. Indusind Pinnacle (for free Exclusive A/C + wallet load) split with Indusind Eazydiner Signature (for dining)
3. IDFC Wealth (for govt. spends & airport spa)
4. HDFC Swiggy (for Dineout, Netflix etc.)
5. PNB Rupay Select (for UPI txns)
Special shoutout for PNB Rupay which, through meagre spends, has been LTF for the last two annual renewals. In return, it has given me rewards worth 6-7K per annum, all of which revolve around 'health'. In my recent past, I have seen enough medical situations in the lives of my near and dear ones, to say that it is your health that matters the most, and is your biggest asset and investment. My avg. UPI spends, as would be the case for many of you, is around 10K per month which would, at best, churn out cashback rewards of about 2-3K annually, even for those Rupay CCs that generate maximum returns on UPI spends (Yes Kiwi, Jupiter CSB, Myntra etc.). So decide wisely! Also, feel free to counter-comment. I would love to learn!
