Any reason to avoid a 1/8” chain on a non-derailleur brommy?

I’ve got kmc z1 on both mine and they run fine.

My brain says; 1/8th runs fine on 3/32 but wears ever so slightly quicker?

On a brompton it’s fine, just some of the older ones had 1/8th pitch sprocket and chainring so obv can’t run 3/32

Wears quicker because it’s a bit too wide? Never thought about that.

Not sure what my rear sprockets are actually, could well be 1/8” if I’ve changed them…
