You mentioned your 1 to 1 gear and I hadn’t thought much about where that is on my bike so I took a look out of curiosity and there it is right in the middle of my granny range. In my case its 24/24 and also my normal starting gear when dropping down on the granny. In my case I have 3 steps lower and 3 higher I can safely bounce around on without fear of cross chaining.
