Would I be better getting exactly the same wheels for both pairs, with the same cassette and discs, or will I be able to get away with swapping between the stock wheels and some upgraded ones?
You can certainly use a gravel frame with multiple sets of wheels to cover a variety of terrain. I can install 1 of 3 sets of wheels on my Aspero (with 25, 32 and 38 mm tires) without having to adjust the brake calipers or the rear derailleur.
