No, sugar maple is not harder than hickory. On the Janka hardness scale, sugar maple has a rating of around 1,450 lbf, while hickory ranges from 1,820 to 2,100 lbf, depending on the specific type of hickory. This makes hickory significantly harder and more durable than sugar maple.
It's preference, however, ash is a better performing wood for baseball bats. Maple bats require more water density to be removed from bat in order to make light enough to use. This causes the maple bats to become brittle and break easier. I love the Akadema and rawlings bats best. Both are hand selected.

Luna moths do not eat sugar maple; instead, their caterpillars primarily feed on the leaves of specific plants such as walnut, hickory, and sweetgum. Adult Luna moths do not eat at all, as they primarily rely on stored energy from their caterpillar stage. Their life cycle focuses on reproduction rather than feeding. Thus, while sugar maples may be nearby, they are not a food source for Luna moths.
