Benefit of stays vs nights after making Diamond (on stays)?

I'll hit my 30th stay of the year in early October. Roughly 35 total nights. I anticipate perhaps 10 or so more nights spread over 3-4 trips for the rest of the year.

Once I reach Diamond, is there any benefit to racking up more stays versus just additional nights?

i.e., can I make it easier on myself by staying in a single location during a trip, or do I gain anything by continuing to hotel-hop (with the commensurate packing/unpacking) each night?

(if there's an existing thread, please move; did a quick search but couldn't find anything directly relevant)
