Points (by KC):

I don't have any points ownerships, never did and don't plan to in the future, so I am certainly not waving any flags for points. However, I must nonetheless note in response to your "challenge" above that some people very clearly LIKE the fact that some points systems (Wyndham and Hyatt both come immediately to mind, I think Marriott as well) allow for partial week stays (when / where space is available of course ). In other words, not everyone wants to be locked into the customary, mandatory full 7 day week that is associated with most timeshare ownwerships. Some people actually wouldn't even consider owning anything EXCEPT points. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.
