I think that's just about perfect position, but maybe a little further forward would be better, hard to tell as I've not been able to do it, obviously.
I have been thinking about selling my fixed because of this, but there's not much out there instead of it, again because of seat tube angle and frame size...
TurtleRecall-
Buying track frame may help, like the Dolan FXE where the largest model have a 74 degree seat angle.
Personally, I think your scenario might be worth looking into a bike fitting to ensure your next bike will be 100%.
My custom bikes (both of them) have the saddle slammed forward despite having a sensible 73 degrees seat tube, look a little off but still feel comfortable.

Is that where it's a perfect position for you or do you think you benefit from the saddle set further forward?
