Conversely, Marriott is vastly superior in Europe, especially at the high end, in terms of footprint. And you can earn the points easily from credit card spend in the UK.
“In the UK” hardly qualifies as “Europe” - in mainland you have about zero chance to earn points other then staying at the hotels.
