Previously 250 or 500 it is now 250 or 500, they earn the same number.
This was a great way to make some points for those without US credit card but now it's not as interesting as it used to be.

I will not use make a green choice anymore, was kind of "pain" and "work" to make some points, but I can tell you that I will request linen and all towels change every single day. Let's teach Marriott the right way!

I guess I too will now get housekeeping every day of a multi-night stay

Or ... we could just use housekeeping if we need it or get the 500 points a day if we don't ... no reason to create extra work -- or extra waste over a few points.
