Personally I book multiple rooms on some of my stays, so 2019 night count will definitely lower than 2018.
And if I cant reach any meaningful tier on Bonvoy, then I will end up moving my stays altogether to other chain.
It depends. One side is status, the other is benefits. Hilton Diamond is pretty spectacularly underwhelming. So, sure, you get more stays and a higher "comparable" status, but you may not come out ahead in the end.

There's been zero difference in my experience between Plat, Titanium (formerly Plat Premier) and Ambassador. But Plat has been pretty solid, so meh?
