WTF is the point of upgrading to an 11 speed bike and then de-upgrading it to 10 speeds?
In the context of what you are responding to I 100% absolutely agree with you, since it seems to be a race wheel and if you have 11spd might as well use it then.
But at the same time i'm glad someone was able to say he this works for one reason. For example you buy an 11spd bike or you switch to 11spd on an existing bike and you have a set of 10spd training wheels or you have a trainer wheel setup all the time with a trainer tire on it. That could quickly be another couple hundred bucks you need to spend to replace them. If your beater wheel or trainer wheel work just fine and you don't need the full range, then that is when I think it is neat that you can still make it work.
