To me, it's justification for my preference for bar end shifters for
touring. I prefer simple devices with only visible problems.

 Well, it just so happens that bar end shifters are God's favourite.
 If they're good enough for Him they're good enough for me.  I have one
SunTour and one Rivendell on my road bike at the moment.
 Friction shifting,, by the way...no indexing.

Agreed!
Well, one bike has them indexing; but I sometimes set it to friction mode when the indexing gets unreliable.
