As regards the other points, if the Strida works for you and your wife over 10 miles +, then great. For me, it's too much of a compromise...
40 * 305 in fact.

I'll get 1 initially & see how I get on, thanks. I'll be particularly keen to see how well they cope with sidewall puncture points, as my 2 most recent punctures, just a mile in between on each wheel, were both from the side.

This is the only folder I've ever owned, so I suppose I need to ride some others when I get an opportunity, to see just what those compromises are, unless again you mean for taller riders?
