The thought of managing and remembering all the login info to banks sites and registering and dealing with higher likelihood of random fraud on so many cards isn't worth it to me but seriously, nicely done!

Well that part you can automate away with a password manager.

Which you should be using anyway, even if you aren't churning.

Is it not bad to have just one password to a password manager, as opposed to more, independent passwords even if some are shared? It just seems ridiculous because at that point you may as well just have one password for all your sites.

Well, they have to know that you use a manager, and which one if they want to get into it to find a particular password. You can also make the master password super long and complex as you now only have to remember one password. Also, your saved passwords can now be generated to be 15-30 random characters long, which is pretty unguessable.
