Etap is the most lizard brain friendly shifting protocol I've ridden (all 3 mechanical groups, and Di2). In fact, I believe if all shifting were developed today they would have copied Sram Etap if they could. It makes the most sense. You shift the rear far more than the front so it shifts like any car would. The double lever tap for front rings is deliberate, no mistakes. Added bonus, you can easily shift with any sort of mitts on your hands since there's no other paddle to accidentally click. That's an issue with Di2.
When I go back to my other bikes with Shimano or Campagnolo I realize how much simpler Etap is. I love Super Record mechanical for other reasons, but Etap just works.
