The problem with shallower box section rims in lower drilling is the wheel lacks the radial and lateral stiffness.
The xr 26 rim is fine in 20f/24r with a good triplet hub. I have one in production and the test wheels have been great. I would be wary of this rim in this drilling with a normal hub for all riders. It depends on what failure rate you find acceptable.

Light, wide, box section/low profile (less than XR22) rim brake options in 24/28 drilling? Needs a coated track or disc option for the rear (fixed road wheelset).
I like TB14's but they don't exactly tick the lightweight box.
