Dunno, the seated sprinter himself thinks he was in a good position halfway the last km. Maybe he should have done it like you say.
Has he ever won a sprint in a group of more than 5 riders? Off the top of my head, I can't think of an example.
He's got a decent finish, but he isn't explosive in the way Degenkolb, Kristoff and Sagan are.
I know, now he needs to find it out himself ;)
