Surprised they are grandfathering some people into the status and not just making it an attainable lifetime status, say at 1000+ nights. After all, if you don't get the SNAs, the only perk you get is 75% (over 50% rewards) and 48 hour guaranteed availability. With Your24 gone, main perk is likely higher upgrade potential which wouldn't cost the hotel anything as they'd have to upgrade a Platinum 50 nights anyway.
