Ok, that makes more sense. I did run something similar at RaTN. The higher gears for tailwinds, flats but leaving some big, easy gears in place for the bergs and fatigue.
Remember that most people don't want/need shit like 11T (especially on a 11-42T cassette) but how many people are going to fuck around building a custom cassette? I've done that too with a 36T back half combined with the smaller gears off Shimano's expensive 28-14T cassette.
They need to make a 42-15T cassette or similar.
