Not really; they're also not repairable with patch kits.
I run latex but carry 2 spare regular tubes and a speed patch kit.
Luckily I've only had one puncture in 9 years but if I did puncture, I wouldn't really want to be pissing about with patches at the side of the road; especially in rain / cold etc.
