I agree somewhat. Tubeless might be great for goat-head thorn territory (not my situation) but for me it was a big hassle including with my new tubeless tires being the most difficult mounting/removal I've seen (adding extra rim tape to seat makes that even harder). The new tires seem to roll pretty fast but not that much of a difference. For extra flat insurance, using tubes with sealant looks much easier.
