I know nowadays the gate mosfet will give similar if not better trigger response than older PTW’s.

A well built AEG will be much more efficient than a PTW and have better trigger response. PTWs do not have precocking, and have an extremely shitty motor design in order to fit inside a real sized grip. Motor braking which you can't really turn off on a PTW is also really, really bad for the already kinda shitty motor. And yes I've seen rewound PTW motors fail as well.

AEG tolerances are still a bit worse than PTWs, but the barrel and hop up technology is way better now. I have not compared an upgraded PTW and an upgraded AEG side by side in years, but I have reason to think an AEG would be any less accurate than a PTW, if anything it should be slightly more accurate due to better barrels and RHop being available. It takes more work to get an AEG to be very accurate, but once its done its a much better hop up application system than a PTW roller glued in place.

VFC is the go to for most high end upgrade builds and will be far more reliable than a PTW.

Variable speed really isn't that important. Many indoor fields have a 380 limit while most outdoor limits are 400. Just keep your gun at 380, 20 FPS doesn't make that much of a difference. If you're really that concerned about FPS though you can try a quick spring change platform like the VFC HK416A5.
