What I see when riders mount their seat nose down a lot is a bike with a steep seat tube angle, a tall rider and too little stack. Steep seat tube angles encourage a more upright stance while on the seat and if you have too much drop from seat to bar the rider will be leaning on the bar with enough weight that they feel,like they are sliding off the back of the saddle especially when climbing if they are putting down some power. A better answer I think is raising the bar height. Tilting the seat will keep your butt from sliding back but you’re still weighting the bars too much.
