Would definitely go to Pro4's again in certain conditions, but they are certainly not an all rounder (which they were not designed to be anyway)
The puncture thing is what has me hesitant to switch away from the GP4K - which version of the Pro4 did you try? Was it the regular Service Course, or one of the lighter ones?
i think the GP4000s is more prone to sidewall casing splits. i.e., catching sharper objects on the road like sharper rocks and slicing the sidewalls.
