If I decide to replace all my transaction code with CTE, will I shoot

I do this all the time and makes code way cleaner. It's very
straightforward with inserts queries. When you deal with
updates/deletes, things can be trickier. I usually leave these in a
transaction if there is any concern.
They can also be hard for future programmers that may not understand
SQL. Make sure you comment your queries for maintainability long term.
I have yet to regret replacing a transaction with a CTE over the past
decade. YMMV
This must assume auto-commit mode where every single statement is "committed"?
That's the only way to explain an otherwise very puzzling question. OP must
not do lots of DML in each transaction.
