11s chain links

At the risk of thrashing this to death, what makes the KMC link single use only when their 10s offering is multi-use?
Is the IRD link re-useable?

IRD is re-useable. Why the KMC(and sram for that matter) is one use I don know.

Maybe because the link is included in their chains? SO when u change the chain u trash it with the missing link? then u put a new one that has a missing link too?

ps: nobody commands you to do not re use a kmc missing link.

Thanks Chaps, I'll have a go at re-useing the KMC and see what happens.
