Currently have both the Amex platinum and chase sapphire reserve (just got the Amex). Thinking of dropping CSR. Would having both Amex Plat + Gold be a good combo for benefits (lounges, clear, global entry etc.) and points / rewards? (While not being an insane combo in terms of fees like CSR + Amex Plat would be).

Is it worth having a travel industry CC (ie Marriott)?
