Of course, I forget about the SRAM X1, was thinking of the more common Shimano one.
Actually as long you replace it before it cause wear and tear, quite likely a long time, I never replaced the 8 speed cassette since 2013 and the 10 speed since 2010 (dad's bike).
Abet the chain were much cheaper on those cassette making it more bearable.
I wouldn't mind the accelerated wear on the 11 speed had it not been so damn expensive.
