as i think about it now Cunego is not really doing much more work than any of the other GC contenders... he just contests the sprints at the end of stages, where GC contenders typically wouldn't, but he has the legs so why not? i don't think it's really costing him that much. plus he's gained valuable bonus seconds by placing in those stages that will probably offset any deficit that might arise from the timetrials.. though he did a pretty good time trial at the Tour de Romandie...
