So, help me get this straight:

I made Titanium during the 2020 calendar year, so 38 credits there. Chase credit card adds 15 to that: 53 nights credited before my first stay in 2021.

My account currently shows 9 years as Platinum and 970-some lifetime nights. This basically locks me into lifetime Plat, right?

At 53 nights credit, I'll get to pick a gift, as I did when I (unnaturally) hit 50 then 75 nights in 2020. If I do select the 5 nights elite credit, I'm at 58 nights, and just 17 nights from another year of Titanium. (Of course, I'd wait until later in 2021 to select the 5 extra elite credit nights, as I don't know where I'll end up, no reason to waste my pick of 5 elite nights if I hit it organically).

...But in summary, this announcement basically locks me into lifetime Plat as well as only needing, worst case, 17 nights to hit Titanium again?!?!!? Am I understanding this correctly?
