You need to consider a route like yesterday’s North London Dirt 3 in totality. I debated riding my hardtail, but, all in, I think the gravel bike was the right choice. Despite pushing for a few ‘sectors’, I rode 98% of it. If that had dropped below 91% I think I’d have preferred to be slower on the road sections with a hardtail.
