didnt miss the point, just seems like a lot of work to make an occasional situation more comfortable. Like relocating the e-brake on your car so you dont have to move your arm as much to use it. If it really bothers you, i dont see why you couldnt put hoods on a set of track drops, or use bullhorns, either seem to be acceptable solutions.
