Get rid of G3 hub wheel?
A few years ago I hired a trainer and I had Easton R90 SL rims built with DT Swiss front hub and Power Tap G3 rear hub, disk brake. I did train hard for a year until I suffered a high hamstring injury that, while improved, I am afraid is not going away, especially at 63 years-old. I don’t train with power any more and doubt I will again. I am thinking of having an R90 SL rim built-up with DT Swiss rear center lock hub then eBay the G3 hub based wheel. I just don’t like the looks of the Power Tap hub that I’m not using and I will drop a little weight. Does this make any sense?

If nothing else you can track calories acturately. As an older rider I find it an invaluable tool to track fitness over a number of years. Often I will get home and say "that was a !@#$ ride" only to find I set a personal best.

Makes sense only if you have to have another wheel and this wheel and hub will be taking up space.
Just because you aren't planning on training or training by power, doesn't mean you won't be curious what your number is when others talk about their wattage for certain things.
