I agree with all your observations really. I do think it can be viable with the right nation.
But the main question for the post was "how do I avoid\beat an early rush." Like you said - the benefits might outway the risk - but if the issue is how to avoid/beat the risk most effectively then an awake combat pretender or counter bless is the best bet.
It's all just risk assessment and desired playstyle IMHO. I've never wanted to feel or look weak early in the game so I've always put having a strong early game high on my priorities. As a result (IMHO) I've never been rushed early and I often make it into the late game. Of course... for all my 2nd and 3rd place medals I've never actually won a large game... so take what you will from my view
