The dials are always a compromise.

With the older analog cameras like Leica R3 and R5, there was a separate 'X' speed next to the bulb setting, instead of interspersing it with the regular shutter speeds.  it is quite intuitive to have the special ones out of the way.

Still you need to be careful when you want 'X' but then accidentally select bulb.

More ideal would be that the X sync speed would match an existing shutter speed on the dial. But I can understand Fuji here, 1/180 is preferable over 1/125 as a next whole stop boundary.
