I saw a ton of these hydro linear pull brakes in Germany last year on a visit and some to a bike shop about them. Definitely commonplace and there didn't seem to be any concerns about failure at least in a touring it commuting setup. The same shop was also fairly dismissive about the need for disc brakes on a city or touring bike when I asked. In their mind the discs are specialist equipment for muddy/wet conditions off road.
My personal experience with hydro disc brakes on my Jones has been flawless and I chose hydros again for my new unicrown Jones the bleed procedure does require extra equipment though it's not as complex as you might think.
