My experience with that tire is similar, but it is marketed as a timetrial specific tire. It is not intended for typical road usage and while for me it was an interesting experiment trying to use them as a road tire, they are just too delicate.

That said, these punctures can be repaired via patches. Any cut bigger than a pinhole and the casing bulges when you patch and inflate them, though - they are just really delicate, paperthin tires. ​​​Not representative of road tubeless in general.
