thanks for the advice everyone.
I think it'll be a tubeless set of race wheels 24h that'll always have cross tyres fitted. Then a tubeless compatible set of road / commuter wheels that'll usually be fitted with tubes so I can easily swap between road tyres and cross tyres so they commute during the week then with they tyres swapped over can be my spare set for races at the weekend.
thanks for the advice on the hubs - handn't thought of that

Go either tubeless and tubeless, or tubular and tubeless. You can always run a tubeless compatible wheel with tubes, so you're not really sacrificing anything.
With discs make sure you use the same hubs across both wheelsets as disc rotor alignment isn't always exactly the same across manufacturers, which can cause rubs or worse when swapping wheels out in a rush.
I'd probably go with identical tubeless wheel builds, with the commuting/on-road riding/training set 32h and the racing set 24h.
