I think the point of bdhu is that the transition should not be level.
The bottom of the drops should be level - and a little dip between the ramps and the hoods.

I think the point of assembling your own bike is that you can set the contact points to maximise your own comfort and efficiency, without being a slave to the vagaries of spurious aesthetic fashions.
In my lifetime, fashion has swung from levelling the bottom of the drops to pointing them at the rear axle and back again in cycles which have as much to do with biomechanical science as does the length of women's skirts.

You think? I thought the transition was pretty level, although there is a dip. BDHU would be more comfortable.
