Maybe it's on-purpose for those who will not run fenders and will run

Misplaced chain stay bridge for good fender line is a common defect in
Rivendell designs. A friend of mine has an Atlantis whose chain stay
bridge is positioned so far from ideal she needed to use the full length
of a wine cork as a spacer in order to get a decent fender line.
Although providing ample clearance for fenders is high on the list,
sweating the details for perfect permanent mounting doesn't get much
attention. (After all, consider the whole zip-tie the fenders on thing...)
