I hear you on the maintenance side—those French drains can get pretty clogged if you’ve got a lot of debris or fine soil. I’ve seen folks lay down landscape fabric to help with that, but it’s not foolproof. The old-school gravel trench definitely keeps things simple though, and you’re right, less plastic is a plus. I do wonder about long-term settling or the trench slowly filling up with silt over time… ever had to dig yours out again? That’s the one thing that makes me hesitate.
