The cable ratio should have changed completely since Shimano has re-spaced the chainrings. I guess at that time, the road kits below the 105 level will be replaced by Cues, and together with the mountain Cues, they will become a complete universal system. So it's likely to have a different cable ratio than anything Shimano currently has.
Anyone try the cues 11-50 cassette on a GRX derailleur yet?
1x or 2x? I have done quite a bit of work with wide range cassettes and Ultegra, XT and GRX in 2x configurations and I can tell you that there are some unique challenges without trying to introduce a new groupset with unknown compatibility.

Would be the 1x I imagine. I have two GRX bikes - one with the RD-R810 and another with the RD-R812.
I've easily done an XT and XTR 11-42 with 2x on the r810. No goatlink or other shenanigans needed.
The 1x, r812 has had XT and Garbaruk 11-46 with no extras needed.
I'm semi tempted on getting a CUES cassette just to see what's what.

Why not just get the Deore 11-51? That we know will work with the aforementioned groups (spacing wise?) I have run that with GRX 2x crank and shifters and XT Di2 FD/RD. What is special about CUES that makes you want to go down that road? 1x will be that much less challenging.
