That make a lot of sense, thanks! I might look into 24-spoke hubs then. You seem to generally put fewer spokes on the front wheel, which is not uncommon in general, I think - Roger Musson in his book on the other hand suggests using the same number of spokes on both, what is your view on that?
They're very pretty
That they definitely are!

I'd like to know what justification he offers for that advice.

Schneider disagrees. He says if you've got the same spoke count front and rear you either have too many spokes on the front or too few on the rear. Given that most of your weight is on the rear wheel that makes sense to me.

Just over is fine. I've been exposing 20/24 (and even 16/20) to my 105kg-110kg on both paved and unpaved roads for ages with no problems and without even having the benefit of deep rims
In this case, DA is a terrible idea. They're very pretty, but they are optimised for low rolling resistance in dry conditions, so Shimano quite rightly make them with no sealing against liquid ingress, which makes them useless for all weather outdoor use.
