The only downside I’ve noted but this is definitely anecdotal than
statistically significant is of my fellow Gravel club mates which is
relatively small group two of which have had derailleurs electronic
failures, both where covered under warranty, but does bring with it a new
and extra failure point.

I guess a fair comparison would be to ask how many of your gravel mates
have had failures of cable actuated mechanical derailleurs.
 

None I upgraded my rear mech to GRX to get more range out of the rear mech
and to get a “clutch” in Shimano speak essentially the rear mech is tighter
so keeps the chain away from the chainstay so is a quieter operation on
jiggly/rattly bits.
