Please keep us updated with how this ultimately turns out. I got the same offer as you and am on my second flight now (return home this weekend). One more to get Platinum UNLESS they decide to take the "book by December 9" approach.
That "Book by December 9" for travel by the end of September interpretation doesn't even make sense as you couldn't book that far out back in early December.
