I went tubeless about 8 years ago and my experience is the same as you. Every time I read a thread like this I almost get a little anxious. I think "Did I do something wrong here because I've not had any of the problems that people seem to have or are afraid of?"
The only issue I've ever had is that I did a kind of crappy tape job on a rear race wheel. If I did a race where it was left out overnight and the temp range was big, the rear tire seemed to deflate. Not a big deal because I would just pump it up. But aside from that, I honestly see no downside to tubeless.
This is like the guys that say they have been racing Corsa Speeds for years and never flatted and so therefore Corsa Speeds offer good puncture protection...if 1/20 guys have no problems with tubeless that doesn't mean they have no downsides. It means that one person got lucky.
