Wouldn't it be nice to have two shutter buttons, where the 2nd one had alternate settings? Just choose them in real time, like the way one moves their right foot between the brakes and the accelerator in a car.

Yeah John I wish.

BTW, I see no difference in the bokeh. Maybe because the background is almost unreadable?

More likely because they were only taken at f/1.8.  That's an impressively curved racquet in the first picture though.

Electronic

EFCS

Mechanical

Not sure why you would expect the bokeh to change at 1/160th either. It's the combination of a very wide aperture, a very narrow slit, no shadow from the electronic front curtain and the shadow of the physical rear curtain that can make smaller bokeh balls look odd.
