That is just the OP's individual thoughts/feelings. Everyone has their reasons (crazy, misinformed, legitimate, etc.) for making such decisions and it doesn't mean others in the same situation will feel the same way.
Of course, after they switch their business to, say the Club Radisson program for 400 more nights, Starriott will then change the LTPP requirements and open it up to anyone, and grandfather anyone else in who stayed loyal.
