I like the way they are now. I find it intuitive to touch knobs
lightly for fine adjustments and to apply pressure for more severe
ones. 

When I imagine it the other way, it seems like it would be hard to
make a fine adjustment (such as of SRR or low values of RTIME, where
adjacent settings make totally different noises) without "jostling"
it out of position as you let go.
