No, it won't. BTC is BTC and all other altcoins are well "alt"-coins, they are essentially a different currency. It's the same thing as there are USD and GBP, but neither of them dilutes either of them.

That limit is almost 21 million BTC (minus a few Satoshis).
Why minus few satoshis? Isn't the limit exact 21 Million BTC?
