I think tubeless has a lot to offer (and I don’t mind the weekly pressure top up that lots of people seem to moan about); my only real issue was the prospect of a ride-ending failure that I couldn’t fix at the roadside (see earlier pic 
).
But I think a decent set of plugs and a couple of CO2s should reduce the chances of a complete write-off to very low, though.
I’ll probably stick with GP5000s, though if I could get something a little cheaper with 90% of the performance, that would be cool…
