Then why didn't Starwood (SVN/VSE/etc.) require different numbers of points for different weeks of usage at Nanea? Clearly week 7 is more desirable than weeks 48-50 and logically should be more expensive to use.
Marriott did this and sells points in buckets of 250 (ie. 1500, 2000, 3750, etc) rather than trying to match the number of Destination Points to the number of points necessary to reserve any particular unit for any particular week.
I think Starwood is still trying to sell the concept of "a week at Nanea" rather than the pure points product Marriott now pushes.
