Plus, I didn't have to waste time with customer service.
But presumably you could've booked the same rate using a travel agent with the same benefits as FHR, daily breakfast, $100 credit and room upgrade?

I can see on balance why it's a "win" but a true win would be Marriott fixing the system so that FHR rates booked prepaid which is points and nights eligible are credited correctly.
