Oh, heavens no. Not sure whatever gave you that impression... maybe it was that time I was talking about how I'm "points rich"? I was just talking out my bum for entertainment purposes. No basis in reality whatsoever.
[Disclaimer: this is from the perspective of a brand new owner in the
DVC system.]
I'm quite ambivalent about this, to be honest.
I know people have been able to make SSR work exclusively; staying in non-studios during most times of the year. But being new to DVC, I'm learning I don't have the constitution to go this route whole-hog. Despite the large availability of 1BRs at 7 months, my stomach was in knots in the days leading up to our planned August trip's 7-month booking. Days started falling off the availability chart around my desired travel dates at BCV. When my time came up, I clicked and clicked to securing my vacation, but it was not a pleasant experience for me and really drove home the idea of buy where you don't mind staying.
By dumb luck and virtue of not knowing any better, I bought into VGF for my first contracts so my fallback was somewhere I'd be happy at. I'm super happy I have those instead of just SSR points, as I would probably be bummed staying at SSR regularly (says the guy who's never stayed there

).
But here's where I'm torn: emotions set aside, I used points to book that BCV stay that were the same exact value as SSR, so logically, I should be fine owning SSR exclusively in most cases. I could
probably even get a Kidani 1BR Savannah view in early December if I were willing to walk it. If I were more flexible and avoided traveling during holidays and peak DVC times, I could
probably make SSR work. The question is, do you want to spend tens of thousands of dollars to "
probably" get what you want? That's a personal call that will depend on how flexible you really are.
I think where I am now is that I am an advocate of supplementing your holdings with cheaper SSR points. If you love VGF, CCV, or BWV, buy enough there to get you into those tough places during peak time, then supplement your holdings with filler points that would likely get you anywhere you want
in a non-studio at 7-months during other times that you might travel.
The heart wants, what the heart wants. If you love PVB, that should carry some weight (cursed ROFR notwithstanding). I suspect in the long term, people never regret buying where they love. I do hear a lot of people lament
not buying where they loved earlier.
