I agree. Working in a fraud space myself.

Typically the ones who cares about virtual vs. physical cards are the questionable vendors trying to push shady, automated, hard-to-cancel subscription services or alikes to customers.

Virtual cards are designed just for this purpose - to let consumers gain upper hand in shady business practices.

Virtual cards are also nice for setting up rules and alerts. I can setup a virtual card for a single merchant, then tell it to alert or block charges over a certain threshold.
