Merlin. Chorus 12 speed mechanical rim is $1,067.57. R7000 is $695. Like I said, not that much cheaper. If it was like half the price, then yeah, but it's not.
Having moved from R7000 to Chorus 12 myself, I think it's worth it. Consumables last eons longer than Shimano consumables, too - but then you'd hope so given the premium for a cassette!
It's not like I'm comparing 105 to SR.
