I don't see the need to put blips by thumbs in the drops, unless I had tiny fingers or didn't like stretching my fingers.

Blips in the drops allow you to shift even during a sprint when you are fully gripping the bar. I also generally sprint from much lower in the drops that I might ride at a more moderate power output. Definitely can't reach the brifters from there, even with L/XL hands.
