Why do you disagree? Spoke count is the prime measure for wheel strength. Ksyrium Elites are training/race wheels. While they may work for you for commuting, there are much better options for it. Plus, I have beef with Ksyriums because of their proprietary parts. I mean no offense, but I don't see your rationale here.
