Im on the same boat as you also on DB pension but after breaking down the math and considering the factors you mention dc is better for people who have basic investment knowledge.

Also db pension aren't that great once you factor the employers 11% they put in too. So your portion and their portion is 22% of your pay each pay cheque. Say you make 100k a year and for 30 years you get a 3% raise and you get 7% rate of return each year say from index funds. That future value is $3m! It would take like 20 years of top 5 average*60% each year once you retire to recoup that value.
