You say that but look at what I've run over the years.
28T was the biggest you could find and fit on mechanical SS cage DA, go long cage you could get their 32T, then 36T (actually that was SRAM, Shimano only do 34T unless you went to MTB kit), now I'm managing to stick 40 and 42T MTB cassettes into (long cage) road deraillers.
Im 100% confident that I stumbled upon a guy who was making his own custom PCB's to connect into di2, and was selling them at about $50 a pop. Cant find it for the life of me. But its out there.
@hippy Im sure Shimano is collecting data on gear combos most used...etc, and carefully evaluates this data to bring to market the exact opposite of what people want :)
