1x gearsets, except for FS MTBs where fitting a front derailleur is impossible, is total Emperor's New Clothes. SRAM can't make a front derailleur that actually works for shit, so rather than making one that works they tried (and largely succeeded) in persuading everyone that they don't need/want one.
