What's the point in being so condescending?

Marriott is the brand, the product and should be the customer service. Just like every other merchant/retailer/chain in this world that also offers up franchising rights. If they want to put the onus on the hotel to resolve things after-the-fact, that's fine, but they should be responsible for confirming resolution.

There's no reason to say that all issues should be resolved before you leave.
