You can take solace in the hundreds of thousands of riders riding millions of miles on the road on tubeless over the past 20 years, to say nothing of MTB and gravel riders on tubeless setups, and nearly every car on the road running tubeless.

While an improperly set up tubeless tire can be dangerous, it isn't rocket science. Enjoy your hooked tubeless setup. If and when you get ready to try hookless, you'll want to similarly note the number of riders on properly setup hookless systems riding without incident.
