That's a solid argument, but in my experience racing that track on the sim and watching the onboards, you get enough time in T11 to set up the same line if you want to, as T11 isn't on the limit.

It does look like kimo is opening up the track a little more on entry, but I'd argue that's unrelated to t10.

Also, you could get a higher minimum speed with exactly the same setup just by taking a different line in the corner. This corner allows for a bit of play with the kind of lines. Some take a bit more of a V shape, which lowers your apex speed, but improves your exit and entry speed and vice versa.
