The fact that most rooms can't be seen and booked online is a practical concern. It is unwelcome. The matter of a small fraction of rooms being 'standard' is a mean swipe at the value of SPG - they have to make 'standard' rooms available for points but they don't need to make many standard rooms!

Thanks to SC Flier for pointing out this hypocrisy.
