You are special in so many ways, but this is not one of them. Marriott often rounds up and gives members Plat renewal for many reasons. Remember, MR is a marketing tool. Marriott can identify customers who may not have stayed 75 nights in the past year but are still worth extending Plat because of likely business over the next year. Before making LTP, I was short one year and was renewed anyway.
But, again, do not let this make you think that you are not special. You are good enough, you are smart enough and dog-gone it, people like you.
