I don't have any new bikes on my horizon right now but if I did they'd all be 1x. I think if I were in your situation I'd use a smaller front, regular rear (11-46 or 10-42), and sacrifice the top gears that I seldom use. It won't achieve the whole range but the shifts will be nicer. If you really need the entire range then a double or triple is still a good plan.
