My OP and this thread about my revelation that Hyatt Diamond isn't as spectacularly generous or awesome as I had thought it would be--for me. That my revelation/conclusion for my travel habits disturbs you is not something that bothers me.

Marriott is going to get my business if I ultimately stick with SPG hotels, since Marriott is acquiring Starwood. I love SPG's higher tiers of hotels, but I do also love PH, Andaz, and some GH, and regular Hyatt and HR properties are often suitable for me, as well--they just aren't in nearly enough locations to serve my diverse business and leisure travel interests. Sorry if that disturbs, but it still doesn't preclude that being true for me.
