I agree. Especially as lots of the changes appear to be about aligning and simplifying policies across brands. The purpose of a spend requirement is to encourage spending. Given that, I assume that all of the types of spending they want to encourage will count.

I just wish I knew whether I will get credit for spend on rooms 4-9 (as there is no group contract in these cases).
