I've always wondered about this - so what's the downside? Why not just do it all the time? I used to ride with a 20-25mm setback but as part of achieving a better position, my tinkering led me to a zero setback post with saddle moved to quite a bit to the front (and a longer stem, slammed), so much so that the next bike I buy will have a steeper STA.
