I've had 3-4 flats in 3 sets of Bon Jon Passes, over roughly ~10,000 miles - some city riding, but mostly country miles. I run tubes in mine all the time. A single tire lasts me roughly 3k miles, although some people take them past 4k.
I suspect that if I were tubeless I'd have the confidence to take them past what I currently see as my "turn back point."
