As above, is there a handlebar shaped in between these 2?

compact (v shallow drop and also don't extend far beyond the flat)

conventional (deeper drop, flat drop, levers further ahead of flats. And not mine!)

Only as far as the variation between manufactueres AFAIK. For example I've some Bontranger Race-X-Lite which were clearly designed by somone who never used the drops as the first bend is 90deg right at the end, which makes the drops little more than decorative as you can't get past the tops!
