Are you sure you were lifting shadows back when you used a 30D and older?
To me, lifting shadows is a pretty peculiar thing, which does usually not make for nice images (your wide sunset sea arc image got criticised for the heavy lifting of shadows, is that an example?) . And is something of the past few years (to show "look at the DR my RAWs have").
Yes, the 80D will have less noise in lifted shadows. The 6D, being FF, also will have less noise. The M5 too, the 1D-X mk II and 5D mk IV especially too. And most Nikons and Sonys too.
You can always use noise reduction software when there is colourful noise you do not appreciate, people tend to forget that cheap and easy part.
