Tubeless tyre worn out

[Ajax Bay]

Talcum powder allows the tube to inflate within the tyre without sticking and thus creasing or twisting.

Schrödinger's tube?
Do you think any sticking, creasing or twisting (if they existed in the first place) will remain under (say) 60+psi?
(This assumes that you are talking about talc applied to the outside of the tube, after purchase or subsequent repair.)
Anyway how's that tub glue 'tween tube and tyre 'faux-tubeless' experiment going? No talc there: stickiness by design.

Some tubes come pre-talcumed. It's also easier to fit them into a tyre. Twisting or creasing is more likely to occur if the tube is nearly the same size as the tyre. With faux-tubeless you are fitting an inflated tube to an unmounted tyre, so a different kettle of bees'-knees.
