Fanservice has nothing to do with Type A/Type B otaku. While Hidamari (only real moe SHAFT show), Maria Holic, and Natsu no Arashi won't fit (because both are comedies, but their tone certainly isn't the norm for the genre), their monogatari series is absolutely Type A (i.e. most SHAFT are fans because monogatari). 

Nisekoi, Denpa Onna, Moon Phase.

I rest my case.

It's not Shaft, that those people like. It's the pretentiousness and artsy style they use in some, but not all of their animes. Shinbo is a master of both and doesn't cater to a single group. He actually only caters to himself and he loves him some moe as well as artsy "deep" stuff.
