I really don't think you should be worried. I have never been asked for ID at any hotel including the PHT. In fact, all the front desk person knows is that you are using some type of corporate discount. You are right, you could have any of a number of connections to the company, vendor, contractor, applicant, spouse of employee or applicant, salesperson, client and the list goes on.
Before I would ever pay the rack rate, I would use one of these codes.
Finally, I am not sure how such a conversation came up with the former General Manager of the PHT where the conversation turned to the use of corporate discount codes by people not affilated with the company. Such a conversation between a guest and a hotel employee is very odd.
