I don't think so. Disk brakes increase durability, performance, and convenience, whereas clipless increases performance at a sacrifice in convenience. In my experience, a set of rims with rim brakes lasts about three months, or one season, in winter use on salted and sanded roads. Disks are one way of getting rid of rim brakes.

Personally, I use drums -- all weather utility with minimum maintenance.
