Same for me. I have found comp suite upgrades rare and many hotels I've stayed at have seemed extremely reluctant to give me a suite even when one is showing available.
I'm not a huge breakfast person so the breakfast benefit really doesn't bring me that much value. I do appreciate having access to clubs that offer adult beverages and snacks but most clubs are closed and the ones that are open have significantly pared down their offerings. The 4pm checkout is nice but the 2pm checkout that Discoverist/Explorist provides is typically good enough for me.
In short, I won't be heartbroken if I don't make Globalist status again next year. Explorist is fine.
