Technically true. But from from time-to-time, UA and Hertz have had a promo for 1Ks: 5 Star membership in Gold Rewards. 5* isn't worth much at all. So wouldn't hold on for that!

In addition to RewardsPlus and the direct Marriott Gold status, in recent years many members have automatically received:
There are probably others to mention... however, all of the above were granted by the partner from lists UA presumably shared with them--you couldn't just go and sign up with one and ask for that status.
- Hertz Gold Five Star
- National Emerald
- Hilton Gold (though with the RewardsPlus program, Hilton may rethink that)
- Starwood Gold

I recently was invited to Avis First. Interesting because I have United Presidential Plus card, not MileagePlus Club. But whatever.
