The other poster already covered reasons why solid tires are bad. But there is more:
There are also foam inserts that "fill" a tire. Those are made for downhill, and wear out every 250 miles, ride like there is 8psi in the tire, and are heavy and expensive.
If you are sick of flats, a good combination would be a heavy duty tube, a new rim strip, Thorn Busters, and a flat proof tire

Expensive, at $100 or so for a full setup, but triple layer redundancy makes it more likely that a spoke will pop the tube, rather than anything you run over.
Marathons cost about twice as much as ordinary tires (around $50/ea) but they last much longer.
Regular tires are fine if you're not planning to commute very far. I'd still install some tire liners to add some puncher resistance; especially for DD hub motors as they're a real PITA if you get a flat.

I’ve used these in the past and they’ve never let me down. The roads are horrible where I live (urban area with debris and broken glass everywhere)
But since I’ve started using Continental Gatorskins, I don’t feel like liners are necessary anymore
