Carbon spokes seem like a mental idea to me but I’m not up to date with that sort of thing.
Have you considered Berd spokes?

From what I have seen in videos of the usual Youtube influencers they are extremely stiff.

Does anyone know how stiff carbon spokes are?
Once you've made them as stiff as steel, you've already lost so much on aero that there is literally no gain from the weight loss unless you're going up such a steep hill that you're carrying the bike rather than riding it.

Considering LB’s new carbon spokes on a new build. Saves ~90g, would look pretty cool, but wouldn’t do it if they’ll be a harsh ride.

I've only ridden carbon spokes on Lightweights and they are amazing. So stiff and light but as they are in tension, not harsh.
Aero is for losers.
