I am about to do an IBD and i have assumevalid=(Latest block). -snip-

assumevalid is activated by default with blockhash of a quite recent block so I don't think setting it up to the tip is even necessary.
In v26.0, it's block height: 804000 (Aug 2023)
In v27.0, it's block height: 824000 (Jan 2024)

If you're using v26.0, you can set it like v.27.0.
But if you really must, leave a week or two weeks worth of script validations, that wont hurt your CPU for long.

i understand some of the risks involved with this, regarding being feed a false history etc

Your node wont have a risk of accepting false history if you ensure that you're connected to a number of peers and not limit it with 1 or a few that could all be rogue nodes.
(hardly even happens with 10)
