I mean 105 will be my size, so far rode CX/gravel on Sora and then 105, so I believe I will be fine.
From what I heard thru axles are a big benefit for easy wheel switch and it's not too easy to find a nice gravel with both TAs in this budget (considering I don't want alloy frame).
Prz-
I think the biggest benefit of TAs with disc brakes is mitigating all the fucking rubbing and mis-alignment with QRs. You (hopefully) won't be taking the wheels off and and all the time, but you will be putting a lot of flex and punishment on the wheels, so the strength of the TAs will hopefully keep them quiet when you're bouncing around off road.

This too is my dream....
Ah if it's not your size then probably good to get something with a clutched rear mech with the gravel and CXing you're doing
