That was almost a decade ago now (frightening how time flies). For example, there shouldn't be a decent reason why a 10 speed electronic derailleur couldn't be programmed to accommodate one extra gear, unless the physical design restricts it (limit screws, for example).
The bean counters and marketeers will give you the 'reason', (not a decent one)..They want to sell ya the 12s stuff..duh?? They care little about what you have already bought, they care about what you are GOING to buy...
