You need to go what works well for YOU!
I think you already have the answer, but perhaps are listening too much to what others are telling you.
It may be what they think is right ... but you have to do what is right for YOU!
Yes, consider all the negatives, but factor in how to counter them while keeping your carpet.
The Roomba could be your secret weapon! I know a lot of people swear by them.
Likewise, perhaps another consideration would be air filters or air cleaning systems,
to minimize what is being propelled through the air.
