Shimano trigger shifters are probably some of the most reliable pieces of kit in the world. I’ve got some 20+ year old XT shifters that still work excellently. Depending on a few things you might need to open them up and lube/grease (or spray gt85 and wet lube through the cable entry hole) them every 10 years or so but yeah, that’s an easy job and I’ve never seen a rapid fire fail.
I’ll entertain any option, my principal concern is reliability though, triggers seem to be a bit more over engineered.
