I'm pretty sure no experienced mechanic would be in favor of having a
tire come entirely off the rim on a fast downhill after a puncture, or
would think that a good learning experience.

The downside I see is rather the need to continually monitor the tire
pressure, as it seems to be air pressure alone, and not bead-to-wall
interaction, that keeps the bead where it should be.

I think in this case "learning the very hard way" would most
likely involve a puncture on a fast downhill and the tire coming
entirely off the rim, and I'm pretty sure you really wouldn't want
to learn anything that way.
