Another nugget of info is that I get about 200K points per year using my Hilton AMEX (not the surpass card) and would gladly switch to Marriot if they had something similar.

Why not the Surpass card? 62 Hilton nights @ $140 = $8680. Using Surpass would give you 26K more HH points with the 9 HH points per dollar vs. 6. Most anyone would say that's worth it already for the annual fee and we are only into August.
