If the frame has a fairly long top tube, it can benefit fitting mudguards and not having your toes overlap the front wheel.

then you set up shorter, maybe more upright stem ..
The tool at Competitive Cyclist has a three directions you can choose: racing fit, the "Eddie Fit" which I think is based on Merkcx fitting ideas, and the French Fit which I think is directed at a touring or randonneur focus.

But, better comfort is better comfort regardless of the plan to race. If these tools help him, where's the harm?
