Why not lowriders with a small bag that sits on top of the rack instead of way up on the bars?
Just like you said, it cancels out. Using low riders allows the rider to use a larger handlebar bag.. I put my stove and cookware in the bottom of some saggy from panniers then I can carry stuff on the handlebars. A solar panel as an example..
