Love this one. Echo the thoughts on a Rivnut tool. I know that if I ever get one, every bike and piece of gear I own will be festooned with threaded bosses.
I'm not a huge Gripshift fan, but my partner is hooked on it for her bikepacking/do-everythink Krampus, because, if you're going to strap a dry bag to your bars, Gripshift's cable routing doesn't get smooshed or kinked as easily as a trigger shifter. Seems like it makes a ton of sense for this bike given the frame bag and sick sewer pipe "everything plate".
