Yup, brake levers have gone a long way up and in since that photo.
I decided to disregard the internet's advice (again) for the sake of 100ml of sealant and those tyres seem to be okay tubeless. A few wet patches on the sidewalls but nothing too severe. Have to wait and see if they hold air overnight but so far so good.
Have you tried rotating your brake levers up a bit? Assuming they're right forward, like in this photo, they look like they might force your wrists into an uncomfortable position. Also, if you haven't already tried it, one finger braking is your friend, as it helps spread the bar pressure over your palms.
