Why too mechanically complex, plus chains are cheap and efficient and if encased, requires very little maintenance.
I wish encased chains were more of a thing outside of the netherlands. I would take an encased chain over a belt drive.
You can buy chain cases on amazon, though it requires an internally geared hub.
