What these focal lengths actually give you on the Canon EOS R10

The Canon EOS R10 has an APS-C sensor, so it sees a 1.6× crop of what each lens projects (Canon's APS-C is 1.6×, not the 1.5× used by Sony, Nikon and Fujifilm). Every focal length below therefore frames 1.6× tighter than its marked number. A 50mm on the Canon EOS R10 frames like 80mm, not the "normal" view its marked number implies.

Effective focal lengths are the marked focal length × the 1.6× sensor crop factor — the field of view, not a change in the lens itself. Aperture and depth of field are unaffected.
