Giving this a bit more thought, the key here is what is to be considered on December 31, 2018.
1. Accounts will be combined in August 2018.
2. If LTP 750 is to be looked at up until and including December 31, 2018, and by December 31, 2018, the accounts will already be combined, it means just one simple total number for LT totals.
So aside from any super explicit wording (which I agree with @
BillBurn doesn't really exist), it does make sense that combined accounts (where neither solely meet a LTP 750 requirement) would also be grandfathered into LTPP.
Even though I easily make the grandfathering requirement as SPG 1,725 with at least 10 years at 100+ nights, I'm not totally sure why I care about the combined requirement. I guess I'm rooting for those who would be at 10 years/750 nights under the combined program by December 31, 2018.
