not much point in an 11/32 cassette.

12-25
I agree, it's easier to get the exact cadence with closer gearing.
The 11-speed 12-25 has very close shifts, but it's not good on steeper hills, of course. It's perhaps too close together, it often takes 4 rear shifts to reach the same cadence after shifting the front.

if you rarely use the next cog above the "cross chaining noise cog" , you might swap that one cog out to have two of the same favored cogs on that cassette... ?
It's complicated or impossible to change one cog on 11-speed cassettes.
