I'm boringly not on trend (again, I know) and love my Viscacha - adding a rack is like adding mudguards - you need three showers to get the stink off.
If it's a short trip though what are you actually carrying? That looks like a lot of stuff over the front end. If the rack and rear bag(s) allowed me to move some of that front end weight to where it doesn't impact handling as much I'd do that.

Any thoughts on my 2 options for over rear wheel packing.
I can get everything in using either option (there’s a bit of spare room on option 2)…
Option 1 - Revelate saddle bag. Have a photo of this below.
Option 2 - lightweight rack with dry-bag fixed to the top.
I don’t want to use rear panniers as it’s a short trip but I have one longer section (100k) to complete in one hit and want to retain some aero.
