Discs are far superior braking to rims, especially in the wet - no arse clenching moments waiting for the film of water to clear before the bite of the blocks on the rim.
Far far easier modulation. I don't understand why you think it's suicidal tbh -
hard to imagine how this can work with disc brakes. Always thought they're mostly invented for downhill or MTB.
That's usually what people said about disc brakes that they haven't tried.
