This might seem picky but I think it's worth considering subtleties in different bar shape beyond the advertised dimensions. For example, one thing I particularly like about the Nitto M106 is the tube profile shape at the transition from top to bend; it's squared off more than, say, the Velo Orange listed ones above (to my eyes, anyway), and makes the flat transition extremely comfortable. Since the flat transition is one of the things that people seem to like in compact bars, it's probably worth considering.
