I'll be honest going from an H with S-Bars to an S with S bars was negligible in terms of ride position, not a racy as I was expecting (but I did get the Flame Laquer frame I always lusted after!!)
The cables were a bit pfaff and I'm sure eventually I'd have shortened them or bought a different set. Biggest issue is because I'd gone 'non-standard' what was the right cable set to buy...
The kousac low rise bar might be a good middle ground, bear in mind wider bars may scrape on the ground when folded

I bought a H6L a few years ago and realised quite quickly it was the wrong decision for me (I'm a small framed rider). I actually swapped the 'M' bars for 'S' on the same stem and it transformed the ride if I'm honest. I did eventually sell it and buy an S6L but didn't find it a massive difference TBH.
Obviously swapping the bars will lead to some extra cable, but I didn't find it unmanageable TBH
