I used friction shifters with mustache bars wrapped the way you describe
without problems. But drop bars would be longer and sharper angled. Maybe
ride it a few days before wrapping the bars to see how it feels?

I ride 51cm and did the same thing once upon a time. I also needed a tandem
cable to make it work.
with that being said, i never had any issues but I think at the time i was
running my shimano shifters indexed.

That's the case with big frames and bar end shifters whether you route the
cables outside the tape (as I prefer) or wrap it all the way to the middle.
I ride 64cm frames with bar ends and have always needed tandem cables on
the rear.

Good point. Also, as I'm discovering with frustration, shifter cables
don't come long enough to reach the rear derailleur on 63cm frames.
If they come long enough to reach the rear derailleur on a tandem,
they'll reach the rear derailleur on a 63 cm frame.
