Am I the only one?

Hello all. Does anyone see a problem with wanting to purchase a touring road frame but not for actual long distance touring? My reasoning, I am a road rider and as I get older I am finding myself wanting a more relaxed frame geometry. Of course I would still be wanting some of the performance of a road bike and still want to be able to hang with some of my roadie friends. Perhaps still do a local time trial or two? Does any touring experts see any problems with this? Would I still be able to run my normal 23 width tires? Thanks for the help.
