That's why I run 46/30.

Nice selection of cog in the middle without resorting to an MTB cassette.

It does actually make you see the sense of 11 speed I guess - a gear for every scenario.
Does also make you wonder why a lot of OTP bikes come with 53/39 when 50/34 is probably better for most people. Macho ideas I guess.

Now OTP road bicycle is starting to come with 52/36 on account of the 11 speed having a much more usable range.

53/39 make sense when I'm riding in a group shielded from the wind.
