I read his post as 10 miles in total, not 10 miles each way. For a five mile ride there's not a chance in hell I'm going to piss about clipping my panniers on and off and switching things between bags, that'll take almost as much time as the ride itself.
My commute is 7 miles each way and I use a messenger bag. I have yet to die from a broken back.
