There is also a slight chance that that might indicate an improperly sized bike. Like too short of a reach and handlebars too high.

Usually the drops should be a somewhat extreme option. It's lower than is generally comfortable for long stints, for times like sprints where you can put up with the extra discomfort in exchange for the better aero for short distances.
