The old chain had slopped up with the rear derailleur and didn’t mind the slight lateral shift. The new chain cares very much.
A quick fiddle with the barrel adjuster on the shifter has everything right as rain.
If only I had checked it when I changed the chain and avoided a perforated fingertip.

Why don’t you wear some sort of tacticool gloves while you ride? Complete the ensemble.
If by “tacticool gloves”, you mean “threadbare fingerless hobo gloves”, then sure, I’ll do it.

Those look about about as comfy as nylon folding chair webbing.
Tacticool!
