Although I am a big fan and advocate for campy....From my limited understanding...

1) Current Shimano di2 is apparently more robust
2) lighter
3) maintenance and spares are easily found
4) I really didn't like the "camcorder" looking FD for the new campy EPS...
5) no thumb shifters?
6) mind numbing price premium over dura Ace (does come to play when multiple bikes are the intention)

My rim brake bikes are still on campy sr12 speed mechanical and campy sr12 speed wired eps
I have a custom rim brake for Campagnolo mechanical 12s. For aesthetic reasons, I don't like the Wireless Super Record version at all, and the company's policy of "doubling" Sram in terms of the size of the chainring on the crank is questionable from my point of view.
I don't mind the shifter under the thumb,
It is true that Shimano is more available and probably looks the best of all the disc brake groups - in the case of electronic versions.
