Obviously, that isn't optimal for roadside changes in the event of a flat.

But is there any harm in starting out with the latex? Are there any noticeable differences in durability or ride quality that warrant one over the other?

As usual, thanks to all for your advices.
I don't see why latex would be any different than butyl regarding installing roadside. I carry a spare latex tube, no problems installing on a number of my wheels, same steps as butyl.
