Also, having the thumb shifter on the right and not the left is going to feel very odd and lead to imbalance between left and right hands when you're on the hoods, and consequently different weight distribution that certainly won't add steering or braking.
In light of this I can't see many people choosing the gravel brifter set.
Campagnolo does the same thing with their Ekar shifters. And that line from what info I can gather seems like it is popular / good in overall?
And because Ltwoo is already copying their designs and internals I guess they just followed what they did.
