Clinchers can be cheaper and flats can be changed in under 5 minutes. It's not rocket science why they are the most popular style tire used for street use.

Realistic answer: Yes
20 to 30 for a tubular of good quality.
I can do it in 3 mins and no pinch flats or better yet I can still ride on my flat. (Dutret don't respond.)
