Given that you can't lose Platinum this year, and will start next year with at least the same rollover as you started the current year, it is actually probably better to have an early qualification date so that you have longer to rack up double XPs that will count in your next membership year, for which there may be no further accomodations made.
I'm currently 7yrs plat, with qualification starting in January, I currently have 560xp with 2 trips booked that net me 60xp each.
