Cable routing problem with cross levers

Hi guys

I'm building a new touring bike with Gevenalle shifters which have the shifting cables exposed on the end of the brake levers on the drops. I also want to add cross top levers for riding on the tops giving more positions over a long journey.

However, I'm having trouble finding the best way to route the cables. I find the cross levers hit each other so I cannot operate the left lever individually as it hits the cable from the right lever.

I also find activating the cross levers sometimes hit the shifter cables, especially when the bike is > 35 degree turn (which doesn't happen often in real life, but still...)

I feel like I need to compromise on the individual action of the cross levers, which I can accept, though I still would like to know if there is a better way to clean up all this mess.
