Perhaps this change is an "And" not an "Or."

Both 1) Points are valid for use for at least 2 calendar years (respectively Ending on 12/31 two years from acqusition) from the date points were earned,

And,
2) Points will expire, if account is not refreshed within any 18 month period (exception the period of Aug 1, 2017 and Dec 31, 2017 for points earned in 2015 or Jan 2016.)

So the Choice managers are tightening their grip on our points. (Marriott is doing the same thing on Feb 1, 2017 --- Choice Management = Marriott retreads/wannabees.)
