Yes, I thought both going the same way made sense too, but then I found I couldn't gear down while braking.
You have to roll your wrist forward while pulling the lever - it's not an easy action, for me at least.
When turned around (the way the shifter is supposed to function on the RH bar), you squeeze your thumb under the shifter, gearing down, while pulling the lever - it's much easier, everything is "closing up".
I don't know if it matters to you, or if you can still manage it. With twice my power it just may not matter.
