I asked a well regarded and experienced surveyor about the through

will last beyond any other approach."


I don't understand how "reglassing is suspect." As for capping
thru-hulls, one very rarely sees that and it leaves a vulnerable point.
You might consider asking the ABYC.

When it comes to holes in your hull, the "more is better" approach
doesn't sound good.
