I don't follow. If the bar is rolled so the rise matches head angle, your slammed 40mm rise bars will get you in the same position as a 0 rise bar with 40mm spacers. If you roll the bar forward it's more analogous to to using some spacers and a longer stem rather than increasing reach.
I'll agree that I like the look though, with the caveat that if the bulge at the stem clamp doesn't taper off and blend with the bends nicely, hi-rise bars can be uniquely hideous.
