My bike does double duty as my gravel and road bike and I NEED that help on the gravel roads but the 30 is also really nice on the long steep road climbs as well. As an added bonus the 46 puts me in the tighter section of my cassette when I am riding around at 16-22ish mph where normal humans spend most of their time.
^this. 100%. Brilliant in its simplicity.
