Additionally, finding the real sockets to the tubes can be easier said
than done.
Some sockets are common, others are like hen's teeth..

Yep.
Sounds like it would be easier to just get the sockets if I can find
them...
It depends on your application. Sockets need a lot of extra space,
these pins do not. There are some pin variants that can be lowered
into a hole so that the tube's glass envelope can almost be in direct
contact with the upper PCB surface. This is a real space saver.

The socket pins removed from standard D connectors will fit most
tubes
if you have the patience to solder them individually to the PCB.
