I don't need a ride now, but this price is fantastic if you do
The beauty of composites like CFRP is that they can be made strong where needed, and shed weight where needed. No metal bottom bracket shells or dropouts are going to be as strong and stiff as a CFRP at a similar weight. Just be aware that the center of a top tube might only be a few plies thick and you will probably be able to visibly deform it with your fingertips. Seatstays are fairly weak too, they are mostly there to counteract twisting forces at the chainstays/rear-axle.
I stared at it for a lonnnnnnnnng time

The 2019-2022 Domane officially clears 38mm tires. That's more than enough for "luxury gravel" like SBT and even a bit chunkier. Would you enjoy Unbound in 38s? Probably not.

if you ride the flat plains you don't need 'lostsa' speeds really. for those with more cash, the new bikes are good deals in fall and winter; spring everyone wants a new bike, so not as many dealz.
vintage bikes are easier to repair, less technical stuff on them.
I have a higher budget than the guy you responded to though. Ideally less than $1000 though
Nice, here's a quick couple minute tutorial of the method that I have found to be the most useful and it's really easy. https://youtu.be/DsqlEYJeLQU?si=

i don't have recommendations. i ride a variety of good quality bikes, both road and mountain. Basically i look for name brand bikes like Trek or Specialized and have done very well used.
Recently i bought an almost used Trek MTB an entry level bike, steel frame 26" for almost Free from a friend. works for me, but that all is an individual decision and i don't care what others think about 26" wheels because i like them. the newer 27 and 29 are good too, but i look for deals that fit me, not what satisfies someone on a bicycle forum. YMMV as in anything in life; just go out and try some and enjoy the ride.
there are tons of threads on bicycle forums about bikes, some forums have areas discussing older equipment and a lot of guys like collecting them and refurbishing them; others not so much. my preference is for steel or aluminum for economy and overall durability. the frames have not failed yet. the good thing about buying used equipment is that you can get quite a few bikes cheap and see what you like instead of being forced into one bicycle that may have filled your uses. again YMMV. blessings.
My Paramount has a lot of flex though with its thin Reynolds 853 steel tubing, so it's an entirely different ride experience, especially if you do a lot of quick climbs or out of the saddle sprints. It lacks rigidity.
Many people riding carbon frames are never really going to push them to the point where they make a significant difference, but many will, and ultimately it's their money to spend. Personally, I was more tempted by the Lynskey Titanium bike posted a couple of months ago, but certainly not by any Schwinns currently on the market.
Just know they are not reliable.
