My 11 speed road bike came with 10/11 speed FSA chain rings, which I replaced with Shimano 105 10 speed chain rings; front shifting improved slightly.
2 weeks ago I zwifted for a total of 4 hours on 11sp shifting with chainrings from the 80s that were also unramped.
Front shifting was fine. Not suggesting it should be done, but it is clearly possible
