Yeah, that's how I'd intended to deal with tubeless in the first place. On the road though the anchovies/darts (if they work) are much more preferable to pulling the tyre off, having to clean the jizz out, patching and reinstalling. Although, that also might change depending on if you were touring or racing and how robust you wanted the fix to be.

Exactly, if the tyre is on its way out then no point but if plenty of life left these give you a reliable fix - I had a nightmare with lezyne plugs and then stans darts shooting out after a few miles. Main problem with the plugs is making the hole in the tyre bigger to fit one in. The patch is a bigger job but definitely better.
