I definitely hope if remote shock controls are coming back that RockShox pursues development of the GripShift style BlackBox remote - hence highlighting the difference.
I fully agree with you re. less crap on the bars and especially less cables. My favorite bike has three (ones the dropper post). That said the demand is definitely there for shocks with remote pedal assistance.
I do think that Scott (see fresh piece [**here**](https://nsmb.com/articles/clean-your-cockpit-scott-bikes/)) has cleaned up their cockpits as much as possible by integrating the shock, fork and dropper remote. Eliminating the stem bolts also somehow makes the two additional cables seem less garish.
