I used a rapid rise derailer with friction shifters for several years on my load carrier. I could never get the reverse motion to become intuitive. This of course after decades of "normal" shifting. I finally, this fall, replaced the rapid rise with a normal rear derailer. For now when I drop my rear hand to the level, there is just a brief moment of indecision. But I am sure I can be cured of my imperfect indoctrination given enough time on the lever.
