AMB/RA is not an anomaly. It is a fully functioning program. And you must not have gotten my point which is you cannot compare Spire with SPG Plat or Hilton Diamond. Those programs serve both low and high end properties. Spire only serves low end properties. So there's no point in comparing.
And if you insist on comparing, then you should compare your Spire benefits against SPG Plat and Hilton Diamond ONLY when staying at cheap low end properties. Like I said I think PC Platinum already compares very well to SPG Plat and Hilton Diamond when we are talking about HI's versus Four Points and Hamptons. In terms of upgrades PC Platinum is generally better. Spire should increase those upgrades.
