I've used a Campy guide that did not have the lower guide, and my shifter cables routed along the side of the DT all the way down, then up and around to the FD. Using a lower guide would have been an unnecessary change in that routing, it appears.
I think that lower guide, that rests on the BB shell, is the "correct" version.
A guide without that "foot", as I prefer to call it, would confuse people, as to it's positioning. This coming from a guy who's only ever seen one in the last 6 months, & figured it out with NO outside help, LOL.
EDIT: Never mind, after I read your post again, mine didn't make all that much sense. (?)
