At a Dr Bike I met a guy who clearly had small man syndrome. He was about 5'7, riding a 58cm carbon race bike. He had a 5cm saddle to bar rise, the saddle was slammed all the way down on his compact geometry frame. He arrived stretched out like superman, but was insistent that this was how he liked to ride.
£5K spent on a bike that was never going to fit, and was probably going to cause him a great deal of pain to ride.
