Kimmo:

Anatomical bars are "virtual bars" in the sense that while they are anatomically shaped - they still follow the classic drop bar design in the "virtual" sense.

Clamping the plug ends down on a table will make the plug cut 90 degrees to the table - and in the "virtual" sense result in the "virtual" lower drops being parallel to the table.

Putting the levers such that their tips just touch the table will place them in the ballpark of where the bar and lever designers expect them to be installed.

In the end though, final angular alignment of the bars themselves always has been, and probably always will be left up to the end-user.
