Well that answer is simple.
If I buy a card now, I want it to support DX 10.1, as I am going to use it for at least 6 months, in which many games could show up that benefit from 10.1 in the way AC did.

Of course the key is could, noone knows what games will support 10.1, and it might take ages.
It is however, not unreasonable to expect games coded for 10.0 to also support 10.1 at some point.

20% better performance for a relatively small fix. I would do it if I were a developer.
