I think the other poster is questioning the likelihood of riding with people who are carrying a spare tire(being that hookless road users will likely be enthusiasts and ride with other road enthusiasts).
And along that line, I think they would question how likely it is that people will tear a tire beyond boot repairability in a place that is anywhere near a bike shop.
^ that is what I think the other poster is saying. I did not inject my views into this.
