How is IHG status connected to Marriott status?

No it isn't "n'est pas"

Marriott, Ritz and SPG are now Bonvoy. IHG has no relation whatsoever.

The other 3-letter program, SPG is now part of Marriott, not IHG.

Shouldn't it be 'it is "n'est pas"' not 'isn't "n'est pas"'? IHG "n'est pas" Marriott.

I think it’s supposed to be “n’est-ce pas”.

Yeah just registered as new GS and was immediately given Bonvoy Gold Elite status which did NOT appear to grant lounge status. Kind of lame. Well I am mostly a Hilton player so ce la vie.....

Can't tell if you're being intentionally or unintentionally humorous.
