I was doing the same analysis. I credit much less than you on the NB though so 65-67 but at higher rate is still a pay raise for me. The kicker is 5 additional nights in my bed due to commutability. So pick up 1 3 day trip with 16 hours and you’re at 81-83 WB B rate. Plus still more nights at home than NB. It’s a no brainer for me. Even commuting to reserve sounds pretty appealing at this point.
