I always choose MAGC partly because I don't want people in my room. Many times on MAGC stays >2-3 days housekeeping still freshened the room even when I had a DND sign on the door. My last two SPG stays (5 nts & 4 nts) housekeeping did this after 2nd nt, even though front desk assured me it was noted on my room comments. If I need something replenished I ask the front desk because they usually have it there, so I don't know why housekeeping still feels the need to do my room.

On a side note, we're at a Courtyard by Marriott that offers MAGC, but for only 250 MR pts. Declined because my wife likes the luxury of maid service and 83 SPG pts is not worth the effort of freshening the room myself.
