Local hooks are just a convenience. CI checks are assurances, you have to have them.

If one hates the round-trip he/she will adopt hooks quickly.

LFS hooks are not just a convenience, for example. CI, despite being a useful thing in its own right, is not a replacement.

Fair, I don't use LFS so I don't know how it works.

I was writing more in regards of hooks as "checks" for workflow/lints/etc.
