I want to but i have concerns about performance loss and or increased power consumption and battery drain + more.
My biggest concern was when I read this:
Warning: In any scenario, never use file system repair software such as fsck directly on an encrypted volume, or it will destroy any means to recover the key used to decrypt your files. Such tools must be used on the decrypted (opened) device instead.
That sounds pretty serious tbh but maybe I misunderstood something. volume != partition for example?
I'll make this a dedicated post so more stackers can see this

On modern hardware it is almost imperceptible

yea they have hardware acceleration for that, and on older hardware you can use the new adiantum cipher
