I'll try

Now the NUA is hot from the oven, all properties were forced to add more suite categories into the pool.
In a few months after all the excitements wanes, I bet they will silently remove these extra suite categories and add more base room with dumpster views back.
Just like when SPG merged into Marriott.

Back to the topic :
Looks like NUA did have positive value going forward (as long as they not start removing the nicer options at later date)

Haven't booked any stays yet for this year so can't check what offered by these EDITIONs and Ritz Carltons
Made 1 reservation at Ritz Carlton Pacific Place Jakarta but have to cancel the trip.
No NUA available for that stay though.
