2) One size smaller would require that I lay out more than I'm comfortable with.

I’m tall as well with a very high seat and just given the setback that the seat tube gives me at that height I need a zero offset post, or the seat slid up.

I'll throw this recently built up old ride. It's a NOS Vitus Argal from the mid 90's just built up with Ultegra R8000.
