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.
Exactly, what I am most worried in multi-wheelset approach is the likely need to adjust the brakes every time I swap wheels, so TA should make it effortless.
Why will thru axle mean you don’t have to adjust your brakes? Unless you use the same hubs on both wheel sets, your rotors are going to be in slightly different positions
