Are there pros and cons to either direction? Is there anything I can do to make it easier on myself next year?

Yes. Mattress run the one night and use your 50-night gift for 5 elite nights.

I would personally take the free night certificate instead of SNAs, but YMMV...

If Marriott repeats the complimentary elite nights, then definitely receiving 37 as a Titanium would make 2022 quite easy for re-qualification. (but this is not guaranteed) As you may or may not know, there are no more soft landings...
