Good point, and 270 is a bit more than I had remembered. t11 or r45 hubs seem a little much, but it's your money. And with heavy rims, you'll have to spend it on hubs to cut weight somewhere.
Here's a option that is similar to their lower-end suggestion (or those 5800/Archetypes):
Shimano 105 5800 11 Speed Cyclocross Road Wheelset WTB Chriscross I19 Tubeless | eBay
In terms of Psimet: He (Rob) gets lots of praise around here. The only negative things I remember hearing were some communication issues and wait times during his very early years (growing pains). Seems like he went full hog and hired some solid help since then.
