Seems like Marriott is trying to get away from the PAG guarantee by doing this now with this message. If they wanted to do that, why not just offer a drop down of your PAG options in the app?
Given what you posted, yes re: the first.

Re: why not a drop down. Could be they're trying to get away from it, or it could be their lousy programmers don't know how to do the drop down.

FWIW - I don't do mobile check in because I've had better success w/ upgrades when dealing w/ a human at the front desk/interacting, than depending upon what is given w/ mobile. OMMV.

Cheers.
