If it wasn't for my bargain very nice wheels I would also go derailleur, not a big fan of the alfine. Felt nice for maybe two weeks after the rebuild. Now, not so much. Think the really long cable doesn't help.
Had to cut off the rack eyelet to make it fit. When you roll backwards with brakes on it moves and then needs a little tap so it rests against the stay again. Would not keep as is if I lived somewhere hilly, but has been solid for 2 years of daily short rides now.

Interesting! I was thinking about doing that- do you have any pics?
I was actually considering going full janky and running a derailleur adapter too and going with a standard 26” MTB rear wheel as I’ve got most of the shifter/brake/gear bits lying around
