Still... If people think a flat ramp could get me feeling better on the bike I might give it a try.
Yes, that's exactly what most of us are saying. Once you have your brifters set up on the new bars, then you can start to mess with position.

OTOH, better show us a closeup side view of your brifter, make sure you won't need to replace them if you go to the different bar shape!! You'll probably have to re-cable to move your brifters up that far anyway. Something to think about.
