I must say it doesn't bother me. I've shot the 1972 Mauser with grip safety and also the Dutch 1906 KNIL model with grip safety. I guess it's a personal opinion.

Modifying a Mauser Parabellum from grip safety to non-grip safety is actually pretty straightforward. Even the non-grip safety Mauser Parabellums actually have a camoflaged (hidden) grip safety that has been shortened so there is nothing sticking outside the grip. A modified safety catch operates it.
