Compact Geometry at the TDF

There's been much discussion about "Compact Geometry" v.s. "Traditional" Geometry road bikes in this forum. In watching OLN's TDF coverage daily, I've noticed that Compact Geometry frames appear to outnumber the Traditional Geometry frames by a substantial margin. Are my eyes decieving me?......Is this just a fad, or are the pros on to something?.......I switched from a traditional frame ( 58cm '93 Trek 2300 CF/AL) to a compact (58cm '05 Pilot 5.2) and found the fit to be much better (could be just me). Looks aside, there's got to be something to this trend, eh?
