As someone who was riding and racing in pre STI days and continues to do so now, my position evolved because of the introduction of the STI system. In the past, I set up my bike to allow a convenient and easy reach to the DT shifters. This made the drops a more "normal" position. As a result of the STI, the reach to shift was eliminated and the tops/hoods are the more "normal" position with the drops reserved for more aggressive riding. Hence a greater offset, but not so radically different body position.
