Negatives: tyre choice, wheel choice.

I would like to keep that as very last resort also because there is not much coming in that size when it comes to road wheel sets for the little I saw, they more often than not gravel/mtb.
You then have to take into consideration, I presume, calliper placement and also the fact aesthetically the front fork won't exactly look nice with the added 5cm or so clearance.

Another random thought: have you considered 650b or another smaller wheel size, to reduce toe overlap? I know some brands spec their smaller size frames e.g. Surly Straggler as 650b for the very same reason.
