Melanie, I found with swept bars, it's best to rotate the trigger shift
lever up, so the throw is about 45 degrees downward. (If looking at the end
of the bar, rotate the shifter clockwise so the paddle is higher. It's
easier to shift this way for me, and I have carpal tunnel and I am ulnar

I would stick to 9-speed and go with these shifters for an upright bar w/o bar
ends.

They just slide around the bend, similar to how a quill stem slides around

I've used Deore 3x9 shifters on a 710 Jones Loop and a Bosco, and it works
well for both.
I found the best position for shifters on the Jones is pretty darn close to
the loop. A superlong grip (like the ESI Chunky, which they sell) or just
bar tape gives a myriad of hand positions across the ou
Use triggers on Jones bars for both the dropper post and the 11 speed
shifter (integrated via i-spec with the brake lever).
Trigger on Choco- and Bosco-mooses too. They work great and there is enough
real estate on the bars to make them not get in the way.
On the Choco I ran the shifter right by
I use XT 9-speed triggers on bullmoose bars. Works well, imho.
