It makes no sense for Marriott to do anything that makes LTPP significantly better than LTP. LTPP is not a group Marriott will want to court, we are a group Marriott has to deal with because of past promises. Marriott is not a charity, it is a business looking to maximize profits and we LTPP just aren't an important market in that reference.
