It has the shorter throw of recent ten speed with the snap and positive engagement of older ten speed. When the 11s chain wears, it tends to get noisy long before it gets measurable elongation.
I haven't had the pleasure of owning 11s yet but have ridden it. Very sweet. Like you say if a Campy 11s chain can be installed and sized with a Park chain tool without having to purchase the pricey Campy chain tool, makes good sense to ride the Campy 11s chain.
Thanks...good to know.
