TT vs. Tri fit - not the same?

It seems that part of the tri fit is designed to maintain running ability post ride, not max out speed on the bike. I've also noticed that Trek's TT bikes have a more slack seat tube angle than bikes marketed specifically to triathletes.

So, is there a quantifiable difference in fit parameters for TT riders as compared to Tri riders?
(I'm talking generalities here.)
