I will be LTPP, but honestly when I realized how infinitesimal the difference was, I stopped caring. Wish I could gift my higher tier to someone who actually cares.

Plus anyone can be PP just by staying 75 nights/yr which I will easily achieve with Marriott's larger footprint (and credit card nights and meeting nights).
Since I will receive 15 credit card nights and commonly have about 15 award nights each year, the additional 2.5 points/$ in years when I have less than the 45 paid nights for Platinum Premier isn't a large number. For me, the biggest difference is United Silver, which has been part of the program for several years. If there ends up being a significant difference in upgrades, LTPP might be more important than I expect.
