Where are you seeing this? If it's a list of lifetime statuses that someone can earn, then it makes total sense, since no who hasn't earned Lifetime Titanium in 2018 or earlier (computed in early 2019) can ever earn it again. So why bother documenting (in a place visible to those who don't have that status yet) a lifetime status that can't be earned by anyone who doesn't have it already?

Didn't you notice that for the past several months there was no documentation on Marriott's website of how to earn LTPP either, and yet a bunch of us did just earn it?

If you haven't noticed, everything Marriott lately has been focused on only documenting the future, not longer documenting the present let alone the past. (Eg, post Aug 18 they no longer documented lifetime status earning qualifications pre-2019, you had to already know those or look them up on some third-party source -- such as FT -- by that point.)

So stop reading so much into Marriott's very selective documentation post-merger. Marriott's documentation department seems to be only slightly better than their IT department (which is such a low bar !).
