The offer is what it is ... a modest gimme (which is nothing to write home about, but definitely better than a kick in the pants).
I value the $50 comp. As far as the tier points, most years the increment is of no added value for me. However, last year, it was a timely bump over the 125K Signature Experience threshold permitting me to book within the timeframe I was looking for.
