I'd suggest that you drop the demand for "future-proofing" altogether because there is actually no such thing:

By the time that your software and workflow needs take full advantage of such a powerful build, the software itself may require capabilities that are completely lacking in current hardware in order to run properly or at all. In fact, I have seen many people get burned on a future-proof build only to find that the newer versions of the software now requires newer hardware than what they had purchased in the first place (as evident in systems that still used Fermi or Kepler GPUs and/or fifth- and earlier generation Intel Core series CPUs).

Therefore, focus on your current needs now and worry about the future later.

The 8GB variant of the 2080 is useless. Get a 2060 Super or an 11GB 2080. The price difference is ridiculous.

I see only one drive. You need to learn about RAID: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-OCdTeZLac

I'd double the RAM and quad-druple the HHD storage.
