I would not apply for a Bonvoy card because of a single Marriott stay, nor would I stay at Marriott properties just because I had a Bonvoy card. You can set your Bonvoy account to earn airline miles instead of points, pay with a general purpose card that earns (say) three points per dollar in travel category, and think about something more important.
Now, on to thinking about something more important.

I am interested in obtaining the Chase Marriott Bonvoy VISA credit card under the current 100,000 Bonus Point offer. I previously had a Chase Marriott Rewards Premier credit card for which I received intro bonus points more than 24 months ago, upgraded to the Chase Premier Plus card and received some upgrade points in August 2018, and closed that account in January 2019.
The question is whether receiving the bonus points for the 2018 upgrade precludes me from earning the current 100,000 new cardmember bonus points offer. The new cardmember bonus point offer states that it not available to previous Chase Marriott cardmembers “who received a new cardmember bonus within the last 24 months.” It also states that is not available to those who have or had an AmEx Bonvoy card and received "a new cardmember bonus or upgrade bonus in the past 24 months." This would seem to imply that receiving merely upgrade bonus points on a Chase card (as opposed to an AmEx Card) would not preclude me from the new offer.
Does anyone have experience in receiving the new cardmember bonus points from Chase who received an upgrade (as opposed to new cardmember) bonus from Chase in the past 24 months?

I asked Chase directly in a secure message whether I eligible for 100,000 Bonus Points, and the response confirmed that the "upgrade bonus was not the same as the new account bonus offer you received when you account was opened" but that "conditions vary per product and customers may check with Marriott Rewards directly if questions about their premium eligibility."

If you have an old Marriott card at end of 1st year and planning to cancel, is it worth the upgrade to Premier for 15 nights after $3k spend? And then cancel while in the AF refund period. Since both are considered the same product I take it there's no harm?

There is no stated waiting period but Chase is slow to show your closed account as closed for at least 30-35 days (it will show on their application system as open for 30-35 days and there is no way of telling how many days to wait before applying for a new card of the same type).

Bonus points offer for Marriott cards
Via email from Chase:
Will not shift a dime of spend to the Bonvoy card for me.

I agree, that's a weak offer. Half a Bonvoy point per dollar, and I have to spend $4,000 to earn it? A full extra point per dollar if I spend $10k? C'mon, Marriott, you're not really trying.

What constitutes "Everyday Purchases"?
I already use my RC card for all my hotel stays (exceeding $10K per quarter), so this could be a free point for no change in spending habits. Can you post a link (I'm sure it's targeted but you never know).

Hehe, me either. I also got an "offer" on my HHonors Amex card to earn more points by adding AUs. Because then the spend from my AU will add more points to my account. There was no bonus at all for actually adding the AU, lol.
