Not that I'm suggesting transfer from Chase UR point to Marriott point is ever worth it, but if you get 2 SPG points at your lunch spot, which is convertible to 6 Marriott points, then that's a much better Marriott outcome than just using your Chase UR 3x dining bonus - since Chase UR only transfer 1 to 1 with Marriott.

Again, not saying anyone should, but if anyone needs mad Marriott points (perhaps for the miles + hotel stay promo), 2x SPG might be better than 3x Chase UR.
