But why fix your gear ratio?

Yes, you have a good point. We already have a number of these worm gearboxes with a 10:1 gear ratio. If that doesn't fit our strategy in 2017 we'll need to add a chain or belt drive to adjust the final drive ratio.
Then our "quick-change drive module" is not so quick to change.
