Everyone should only make the stuff they made back in the 70s or whatever era I liked nobody should ever change or do something new and how dare bicycles and parts look similar they never did that ever before!

If you cannot tell the difference between Campagnolo and Shimano from a reasonable distance you might consider seeing an optometrist and getting your eyes checked. Yes like all bike parts they do kind of look the same in the fact they are the same parts, a integrated brake and shifter lever really doesn't have a whole lot to do differently looks wise, derailleurs have sort of been figured out to a relative shape and design that works so it will all come to some slight homogeneity. It feels differently and has some different performance but in the end yes a lot of it kind of is semi-similar to a point. There is still innovation in the industry but nothing so major you look an it and don't quite recognize it.
