I agree with you on the XO1 designation. I actually noticed too late and just assumed the drivetrain was all XO1. I would expect a company like Yeti to be more straight up about that. An aside is that I prefer the feel of the GX shifter. The paddle arm is a little stiffer which appeals to me. The cassette is a bigger deal because there is a significant gap in both price and weight.
