I would love to be in the room when award category changes are discussed.

But it seems to me that SPG decides on new award categories, then the hotel finds out and says something along the lines of "no thanks, we don't want so many award nights".

I've mentioned it before... this hotel and its rates don't justify anything more than a 2, but the way Las Vegas rates work (way more expensive at the weekend) means that the hotel would lose a lot of revenue by allowing 3,000 point per night stays at the weekend. I would probably prefer it staying as a Category 3 than playing availability games to avoid standard room availability at the weekend...
