Great observations, Mark. The dropper post with the automatically adjusting seat angle you mention is the Specialized Wu saddle. I don’t think it took off, with many riders not aware of the nose down tilt possibilities, or concerned with the extra moving parts. I don’t think they offered one with enough drop either (125mm max?).
In years to come we may find the Wu dropper was ahead of its time. Maybe?
