+1.

Looks like the IGH version has a hanger should you/they decide to run derailleur in the future but the derailleur version has vertical dropouts so not as flexible.

Vertical drop out not really a problem with a chain tensioner like that Shimano Alfine one, I prefer it to make it easier to set up bike.

Another +1 for Nexus 8, they’re basically old school Alfines.

I was going to say this.

Take your point on the tensioner, I'm just a bit of a purist and prefer a dropout or bb based tensioning method.
