I went for carbon as it's a lot lighter, and wanted tapered, and a nice thing to try. Rack will carry a tent which is only about 1.5 kg, so not a weight worry but a bit too big for pocket!
You can always use a stepdown crown race to run a 1,1/8 steel fork in the future. So this gives you options. Options are nice.
I'll definitely be taking an adapter with me when touring , incase the fork explodes in eastern Europe
