Given that 1x12 is the higher end these days (trickling down to lower end by SRAM via GX), and lower-mid is 1x11, 1x10 is pretty outdated at this point, frankly I'm a little surprised that Shimano is still offering it on a main-line 2020 group. Might be an issue for you, might not be.
Outdated? Not. My 1x8 and 3x9 drivetrains works just fine, thanks.
