Rim height - 23 or 32?

Hey riders, I'm looking for a new set of wheels for my bike that is mostly used on roads around NYC/NJ for exercise. I run 700x28 tubeless tires on them.

Currently looking at the DT SWISS ER 1600 SPLINE set, but am having a hard time deciding which to get... the one with 23mm or 32mm rim height.

The 32 is about 1/4 lb heavier and welded. Should be better for some of the rougher roads and looks a little nicer. The 23 should be better at climbing and speedier but probably not much... looks to have some toughness to it as well. Prices are the same.

Is there something I overlooked? Am I over analyzing it? Thanks for your opinions.
