Hydro has a big nub, but not like people typically hold that part of the lever. Aesthetics might looks off, but ergonomics would not be a problem.
I would disagree fully. This isn’t the best picture but shows the much larger “horn” on the hydro. Plus the steep angle of incline on the horn. Some difference in the body too. The body is wider too. I personally rode on the horns a fair amount, sometimes when climbing or a hard flat TT type effort.

You can disagree, but you'd be wrong.
Yeah, the "horn" is obviously different, but if you're holding the shifters like normal, the ergonomics are the same. I can say that because I literally just went to my garage and fondled both hydro and mechanical shifters thoroughly.
