The main disadvantage if you were to delete your NEFs is that Nikon
software & Bibble wouldn't be able to process your images. (Capture
One can't yet, but will do soon).

Yep, I'd NEVER delete an original file, as disc space these days is so cheap it does not make sense.

Archiving in proprietary formats really makes no sense at all. Better to convert to DNG early and discard the NEF's (or MRW's, CRW's, ...).
