I find the 30t is annoyingly small when compounded with a 27.5 rear wheel. You end up in smaller rear gears, and especially places like bike parks (or just fast flow trails), you wind up with less chain tenanjon and more noises and rattles than necessary. I get specing a 30t for many customers on 29ers, but on this bike it's just too small.
