Say you have a room booked for a week because you are doing some work at your house. Your parents or friend comes visit for a night. You book the second room right in the middle of your 7-day stay. Would your checkout of this second room trigger the IT logic and flag this as a nested stay and blow away your week-long stay? Or is IT only doing the nested stay logic when it comes to a different hotel?

I have booked a couple of rooms on various occasions when traveling with my family where a single room was not sufficient space for us. In all cases, however, I always booked both rooms for the whole stay period. I've never had the case of doing a second room for a partial and/or fully nested case. Just wondering if this would trigger a different treatment by Bonvoy.
If you read my post just a few above yours you will see that what happened to me in this exact scenario a couple of months ago (same hotel, two different durations and reservation numbers, check out same day) was the neither stay posted anything. This was easily fixable by escalating the longer missing stay to customer services.
