If Hyatt converts SPG points 1:1, how many SPG points will you have in your account upon conversion? I'd get as close to zero SPG points as possible.

I have no idea how hotel categories would end up with a combined loyalty program; I don't even hazard a guess other than to observe that both programs currently have 7 categories.
