It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I know there's an actual product category called "tubeless," but do airless tires fall into this category? Because after a run of bad luck where I was getting flats nearly every other time I rode, I put a set of Tannus on my bike and it was the best bike-related thing I think I've ever done.
I run TA inserts on my electric fatbike: Slows things down a decent amount, but I have not gotten any sort of flat since installing them.
Not sure that would really be classified as "tubeless" though they technically are without tubes, those are usually classified s solid tires if you're talking about the actual tires they make and not the inserts (though the inserts do give me run-flat, which isn't too terrible).
