Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

+1, building a new wheel on a hub is typically more expensive than a new wheel. The added cost may be justified if the hub is special or very high end and pricey, of if you want some kind of special build which isn't easily found.

Given that your hub is garden variety, and needs a new axle to boot, you're definitely a candidate for a new wheel.
