Agreed about the $10 (per stay). Then it would be like $5 + $14/day on a two day stay.
I once went back to the counter on another trip and tried to claim they hadn't offered a welcome gift. The agent said I showed that I usually preferred the 1000 points, so that's what they put in the system, which they claimed satisfied the requirement.
