I'd hazard a guess that tubeless would deal with high rim temperatures/pressure buildup better than a tube, but then the fact that you can also run much lower pressures than a tubed setup probably means it won't be an issue in the first place.
And as you're 65kg you don't really need to use brakes very much anyway. Just sit up and open your jersey like a parachute.
