Chains are consumables when it comes to cycling. Personally, I would put chain life is the least relevant of criteria when it comes to choosing between 8 speed vs 9 speed or 10.

Sora's thumb shifters are not as nice to use as the dual action levers of Tiagra or higher. Being able to shift easily while in the drops >> chain life, IMO.
