I get two functional bikes, one lighter, faster and good for random style rides; the other slower and heavier but much more functional.

This is what I'm starting to think. Keep my CdF for touring and have a Genesis Equilibrium-esque style bike (32c without guards) for most weekend rides.

That's what I've done. Works pretty well over all to consolidate bikes for lack of space. I've got the 90's, fat tyre'd/rack/dynamo/all over tank.
The other bike is a shitty roubaix with 30c's, 1x and hydro drops.
Both bike's I really enjoy without being too precious about.

Funny isn't it, only taken me a decade on here to realise the measure a good bike is one you actually ride. Having 2 bikes you're not too precious about sounds like a good formula for that.
