I've only ever had tyre failure twice, once on TCR and then again on Ipwr. Both were sidewall punctures, one tubeless, one with tubes. Both times I was able to patch the tyre up and ride 1000+km on it. So I still wouldn't take a spare. Just make sure you have plenty of patches and something to make a boot with.
