It's not quite in there (even though it looks it) it has a another 3-4 mm that it can move forward.
But regardless even if it was right in the dropouts with no movement left, the chain is flexy enough to allow me to derail it with my finger (I don't run it super tight).
And even if the chain was super tight and I couldn't derail it - it has a master link that you can just unclip and slide apart !!!!!!
And if it was super tight and had no masterlink and was all the way forward I could always just shoot it off with a gun.
And if I didn't have a gun I could just wait for the winds of time to erode the chain and watch it slip off.
And if time came to a halt I could simply philosophise that both myself and the chain are part of a contiguous whole and the notion of 'removing' the 'so called' 'chain' is not epistemologically sound.
See, there's always an answer.
