Bought a used Orbea that had 23s which road like a truck except on very smooth surfaces. Swapped them for Conti GP5000 25s and it was a world of difference for the better. Probably could have gone with 28s, which I have on my tubeless ride which ride like magic.
If one gains comfort without a speed penalty, or even if you do, go for wider.
