Gravel/tour spec sounds fine to me.
44x11 is a bit too low for group road riding imho.
Not really, you either need to work on your cadence or learn to descend better. My cross bike has 40x11 max and Marathons for the road, it has never been problem.
I, like most prefer to stay around 95rpm. 44x11 becomes a bit light around 55kph.
This may or may not apply to you.
You either need to work on your comprehension or learn to converse better :-)
