The disadvantage of this timing would be that the Diamond status would only last until February 2015, whereas doing so in the middle of the year may extend that status until February 2016 (which would also result in 8 suite upgrade certs total)
Of course, this wouldn't matter if you intend on extending Diamond status via regular qualification going forward.
