@kukuwai very nice! I got alloy poles for the same reason but my mates have carbon poles. The weight difference is something stupid like 30grams so negligible. The carbon poles are pretty damn good and have a higher breaking resistance with a more solid platform for the tent. The alloy poles flex a bit more and will give way to bending sooner. That being said, in one hell of a storm when both will break regardless, I figure at least my alloy ones will bend not snap (hopefully!) haha. Long story short, I don’t reckon it really matters. Both solid options.
