Not sure what you are referencing, but at 75 MPG nights you should get 5 SNAs. There are Suite Night Awards that, when everything works right, allow you to get upgraded from a standard room to a suite up to five nights before your stay. SPG has had these for a while and MPG is picking up the benefit.
Ahhh, forgot about the choice of night credit...
Yes, it only makes sense if it will help you get over the next threshold. Those that pick that benefit in December should be very close or it's a waste of benefit.
