I'm not sure, they're noticeably harder to set up than the normal MTB derailleur (on MTB), occasionally I have to put a new cable and housing just so it can shift well.
In theory, the shadow should work considering it does have the same cable pull, my other theory to why the other people who mate the shadow derailleur to road levers may not have anticipated the low tolerance of such derailleur.
I'm sure @mdcc_tester will correct me on this.
