I have DA 7900 shifters on a bike, indexed. The double ring at the front is friction - always perfect trim :)
For a rain/touring/audax bike I actually prefer it to anything (or at least anything this side of Di2). It’s snappy, completely consistent, reliable and with shorter, cleaner cables and fewer along the bars.
Shifting whilst out of the saddle can get spicy.
