So 2-month stay will cost just 300/600USD and both will be Diamonds by the end. Talk about value...
Why are you so overly conservative
You are forgetting to account for the online booking bonus, the welcome bonus points, and if you are going to hit 40+ nights for the year there are also the 10k pts for each 10 nights so 1k pts per night.
I believe if you stay at hotels 5k pts per night, your net cost is negative.
