That's because Marriott has more stringent elite qualifications (currently) than SPG. Marriott has over 900 properties where you get free access to lounge or brekkie - quite frankly, a LOT more than SPG.
Is that why Marriott's breakfast benefit seems a lot more limited? Giving too many people the benefit likely dilutes it for everyone.

No breakfast at resorts, and more than half the brands seems limited.
