Anyone using any funky bars? Why?

So I got a cross bike this year and i'm using it 70%/30% road/off road.
I'm running some 42cm bars and they feel mighty narrow to me, coming off my wide risers on my MTBs.
So i'm shopping for some new bars and I see that lots of mtber who cross ride "strange" bars with atypical shapes & bends for road bars.

Like the Nitto Randonneur Handlebar, or the On-One Midge.
Anyone running these, or anything like 'em?
What do you like about them? Why are you running them?

Any feedback is appreciated....

I'm not sure which Nittos I have but they are 46cm c-to-c and flare out in the bottom of the drop.

A little more than this pair, but mine don't have the bend on the tops.
