Roubaix Expert or Pro. Is the difference worth the $$$

Hi all. I’ve just joined this forum and I’m looking forward to learning lots while here.

I’m currently waiting on the delivery of a 2022 Specialized Roubaix Expert. I’ve been informed that I may also have the opportunity to pick up a Pro instead. I’ve done quite a bit of reading on the differences and I’m not all that sure that the price difference would be worth the gain in bike specs.
The pro has Fact 11r carbon vs. 10r, carbon bars vs. aluminum, Roval Alpine CL carbon wheels vs. Roval c38 carbon wheels, Force etap vs. Ultegra Di2.

These are the main differences that I can see. Do the upgrades make the Pro that much better of a bike? In your opinions, is the difference in price (about $2600 CAD more for the Pro) worth the upgraded parts and materials?

Thanks in advance
