I blame today's mfr's and yesterday's enthusiasm with seat tube angles and the amour de low. At 1.83m tall and on one of my TT bikes, I can get ~90 cm reach and be completely UCI legal without an exemption...but, I don't have any skin in this game, so YMMV.
Do you mean that you don't get any more aero if you stretch past the UCI reach limit? My experience: I don't know any elite TTer whose CdA doesn't continue improving until they take at least one UCI exemption.
And, yes, we make darned sure there's no saddle-hopping.
