Well, dude, it's nothing special. It's just a mixte...track bike.

Seriously, I love all these spooky extra-stiff or extra-aero or extra-whatever mutant frames. I suspect there's little to no sound data-driven engineering to it, merely the intuition of a skilled craftsman (which is sometimes correct and sometimes not). So who knows if they work, but they're definitely a mind game, aren't they?
