Hub gears with up to 3 speeds is roughly in keeping with the spirit of early cycling. But hub gears with anymore gears than 3, is just against the spirit of fgss.
8-11 gears seems a joke to me, when comparing their similarity to singlespeed bikes.
3-spd fixed is well known and established. Has been so for many decades.
