Really, you don't. When you begin to understand Phase Separation, you'll figure out some of your animus with E10. Now, if gas is going to sit in unsealed storage more than a couple months, the extra cost of storage-stable gasoline is worth it - if nothing else, it saves the cost of various stabilizers that keep E10 from "falling apart".
