I have one on my foldable and this is true, not a huge pain but is annoying.
For me the main reason is going to be the aftermarket shifters. For the mechanical we were stuck with shimano (trigger or twist) or versa (sti) or jtek (bar end but since the inventor died the son kinda abandoned the business). With di2 you put your buttons wherever you want how you want, you can build a cool townie without the modern aesthetics of a trigger...or a riser with a minimal look...
