Right. At -80g (I thought the NextR was about 120g lighter, but whatever), they're only allowed to cost $80-$120 more. That's the rule, right? $1/gram, unless you also get better durability.
But I'm not the target market. Running a $20 +100g steel RF cinch chainring on a carbon bike because it'll last a lot longer, got tired of 3 alum chainrings a year. Turned into the most expensive wear item on my bike other than tires.
