If the aluminum low gear was still replaceable then X01 cassettes would even be possible to justify in terms of weight v. performances v. life.
M6100 is the winner in the SHI-12 fleet for sure but it is a pig. IF the aluminum cogs on XT were replaceable separately for 1/3 the price of a cassette then the value of M8100 may come up.
