I haven't drank the 11/12 spd koolaid because if a Road cassette doesn't have a 16 & 18, it's not for me...
Not sure how, but the manufacturers have convinced many that all they need is 11-28... and the options on 11 & 12 spd cassettes is terrible.
Fact is 11 is a waste on me, and 27 is the same as 28... mostly...
12 is ok with a 50 - or 52 (53) x 13 is all I need to hang with the vast majority of group rides.
maybe if I was still under 50 (or 60, 70)... things are not what they once were, which is fine/life.
I have plenty of cassettes to last me a lifetime - I'm set - 10 spd will do until they put me into my pyramid....
I still enjoy each and every ride. Maybe more than ever.
Ride On

"are terrible..." not "is...) LOL!
