And to cap it all, Op wants to earn points without staying as well as give 'friends' elite benefits.

This is not the same as gifting a free night to a friend with your points, which op is not, as Op states he wants to earn points.
I read what you are reading in his post, but the title of the thread and the title of his post specifically states "award stays" and "award booking".
