Ta.

Thinking about it while looking at my hands (what a morning) I think different bars would help. Question is which bars. I think mine come in a 740mm / 12deg version so that seems like a logical start.

Actually I've found an out of focus pic. What you can see is that the shifter clamp can move in or out and rotate round the bar as much as you need. 780mm bars on this bike. Hardtail is 750.

From that angle it looks like you've got your thumbies much closer to your brakes which is what I'm trying to do.

What's the disadvantage to sticking bigger backsweep bars on? Because with the bars swept back, my wrists would be straighter.
