All I can say is the last global offer that had a minimum length of stay had this phrase in it: "...earn 2,000 bonus points per stay on stays of 2 or more nights at participating brands..."
No such phrase exists in this latest global offer.

I thought some cards gave 15 nights? An agent on the phone told me this while trying to encourage me to get one, without realising we can’t apply in my country! The points transfer rate through Amex is terrible! Yes you pay an annual fee but that’s what most people with credit cards do (some get them waived) but that’s not for these extra things. You already have the ability to earn Marriott points at a good rate and qualify for Platinum much more easily. I bet those with credit cards from non-US locations aren’t happy as they’re not getting the 500 points so it wouldn’t have benefitted me even if I had one. The programme is too US-centric - even the promo page is mostly US promotions with very few international ones.
Marriott is far too US centric - I feel like we non-US based people are an afterthought to the loyalty program.
Only good thing about that is fewer elites overseas so get treated real well.
My app still had US call in # for CS. I mean really!

almost as frustrating on how long it take to post a stay and way less frustrating that all folio's are not downloadable
and the automated assistant says that i am not eligible for any promotions as this time, but the representative took care of it.

SPG AMEX used to be 5 nights and 2 stays.
Marriott Visa used to be 15 nights
Now all cards, Marriott Bonvoy AMEX and Visa are 15 nights.
My 15 nights for the old SPG AMEX has posted for 2019.

Double Take: Earn double points - Can this work?
I just checked in one of the Marriott hotels for 28 days. Can I book one night at a random marriott hotel after March 19th so my current stay will count as 2nd stay instead of first?
Let`s say on March 21st I book a night at courtyard and stay there for one night. It takes few day for the stay to post, so on 24th or 25th It will already showing on my account.
On April 4th, I will check out from my current stay. So does this one count as 1st or 2nd stay now? If it count as 2nd stay, I am going to earn tons of points.
I am seriously consider it now because I can find a sub $70 rate at a random marriott around my current hotel

Both concurrent stays will nullify each other. However, you could give it a try. As the longer stay will post much later, the system will identify it as the second stay and will double the points. However, in the rare event your account does get audited, Marriott will take away the points for both stays.

I got the weird error message but after refreshing it shows the counter now so I presume I’m all set. However, the promotion doesn’t show at all in the app and in the SPG days I’d get an email immediately after registering but this time I didn’t. Is this a Marriott thing?
These things should be straightforward and smooth but Marriott seems to always leave doubt and confusion in customers’ minds, both in the T&Cs and registration process. Am I registered or aren’t I?! Should I screenshot it?!

That 2 year old IT system that Bonbon bought is a piece of excrement.
