Another enthusiastic disc adopter! Bigger guy, lots of climbing, was never fully comfortable with rim brakes but managed. Got my gravel bike last summer, with hydro discs, absolutely loved it. Even chose that over my 5lb lighter road bike for big climbing events because of the brakes. Then swapped for a disc brake road bike and I'll never look back. As with anything, ride what you like, but discs plain work for me and I love them. I also think they look better, along with dropped seat stays and integrated cabling, just looks fast and clean.
