I'll join your drift.
Having absolutely no previous experience with disc brakes, can you-
Rest the bicycle upside down to remove a wheel etc. for whatever reason?

Reason I ask is I made a cassette change. With the rack & folding baskets installed, it was a real pain to R & R the wheel, keeping the disc from getting mangled upon reinstall while trying to hold a VERY HEAVY Ebike. With the baskets installed, it reduces visibility need to line up the brake disc properly.
I'm getting old, weak & feeble which doesn't help matters.
