Any issues with using a chainring for a single-ring derailleur steup, with a singlespeed/hub-gear?

Are 10-speed single rings thinner than a 3/32 singlespeed chain?

On a related note, any advantage/disadvantage to using a thick/thin ring?

No

I think so

No advantage, disadvantage could be price. I use an MRP bling ring, which are a silly rrp and limited sizes - max 36 tooth iirc. Previously Nice cheap durable ones were my go to.

I'm after a 36T ring for my Rohly, someone has a brand new Saint one on the classifieds for cheap. But if its 10-speed compatible, I'm wondering how well it will work with a 3/32 chain which I need for the rear sprocket. I guess it should be fine...

And I asked about the thick/thin because Travers were selling Absolute Black rings for reduced price.
