I think the math is that it's because their numbers have been up so much.
(around 700k buys instead of a more recently normal 500k). The article had an estimate that they might top out around 500k this afternoon because there was some previous card that was run at an off time and it managed to do that. Or that was the gist of it.
I think the attitude is one of "consider this card a loss leader, one for the bigger picture"
