We install a lot of hookless tires. It's a minefield of max pressures and compatibility. Even if I never had one jumping out on me customers had, always going over max pressure.
It's not a problem AFAIK on lower pressure setups but if you're a big guy and need big tires rock hard I'll give it a second look, not worth it for a few grams less, just another cost cutting measure disguised as evolution.

Interested to know people’s experiences of hookless rims—any issues with losing tyres at lower pressures? Encountered a world of tyre compatibility nightmares? Everything been fine and it’s put an end to tyres that wouldn’t seat well before?
Thinking more for rims intended for gravel & wider tyres i.e. inner widths of 20mm and above. Any hot takes? Hookless good or hookless bad?
