Obviously they are interested in keeping those working toward LT status happy and interested so it seem LTP will be treated as the ultimate top LT level and LTPP will wind up pretty much getting the same benefits, which right now only include a 25% higher points balance and the 48 hour guarantee. The idea that Marriott would have any interest in rubbing some extra benefits for LTPP into the faces of those who are likely doing more business but can never attain LTPP seems counterproductive and unlikely.
