Ditto. Those two extra points add up HUGE. most of my extra points go to lowering the HAM cost from Layers, then Segs, and final assembly. figure across 3 steps you got at least 6pts of HAM reduction bonus

With just the 10 points you can compete rather nicely with kinetic layered comp with good resources....still should be able to get up to 80/80/70. The only difference is that your encumbrance will be higher. My eaxtra points usually are used towards encumbrance and very rarely do i need them to max out the resists.
I wouldnt attempt stun with just the ten points though. But you can certainly get yourself a nice little piece of the market with sliced kinetic as a 10 pointer.
Good Luck,

As just a master armorsmith, without those awesome extra 12 points, can one make good enough armor to compete and actually sell?

With very nice resources yes.... you can always sell composite if you price it low enough, even if its junky 65% base 80% kinetic 900 ham stuff. the extra two points lets you made the same armor with even worse materials if you so chose....

you can even get 80/80/80/70 armor with 10 points.
i do 
12 points help a lot on reducing enc or making triple or quad 80% comp.
also on RIS the 12 points count a lot since kin isnt stacking on the base.
on PSG you can make really nice 3k condition Imp PSG having 12 points,with 10 points you have to sacrifice protection to get 3k
so it does matter, but youll get your sales for sure, especially grinding composite will go well
