Because why wouldn't you use a thumbie or a trigger? On a drop bar, having the shifters on the bars either dictates the levers for you or you have bar-ends and jab yourself in the knee all the time. But on a flat bar you have better options. Especially when there's another thumbie already. Each to their own though

Not sure I understand a downtube shifter on a flat bar bike but you do you!
