Actually, it doesn't. Tubulars still ride better than the best tubeless tires.
I flat so infrequently on my tubular gravel wheels that it's a non-event. I started riding tubulars because I got so many flats riding with tubes.
Yeah, tubeless is a somewhat close second, but oh my! the ride of the tubular...

edited to add: I did my first 3-4 Hilly Billy Roubaix-es on tubulars. Zero flats.
