Much better, old Chorus shifter aren't as comfortable as the newer shape but they shift awesomely well.

Definitely a bike I can focus on small improvement over time.

Looks great - I do find prioritising and upgrading parts gradually over time more satisfying in the long run than dumping a load of cash on a new groupset say. Having said that if I had the choice/cash I'd always go for new group all at once, but it's somehow not the same. What are clearances like on that frame, those 28c's?

Not too bad, 28mm is actually a little tight on the chainstay, it clear it, but will rub when riding, will fit 25mm when the new wheels get here.

A new groupset is defintely on the card, the new Campagnolo Potenza groupset looking like a good option.
