Doesn't matter dude, you got it to fit you, that's all there to it.
It'd be a little worryingly if you have to go to some great extend to make your CC fit you, but you managed, you got the advantage of being easier to get on and off the bike, as well as less vibration going up the seatpost.
TBF I rode a 52cm CC and was fine, abet with a +10 degree stem.

3 month old post, but I wish I'd never read it. Knowing that the reach is the same on the 54cm CC and the 56cm CC basically confirms I have the wrong frame size, should have got a 56.
If I wasn't sentimental about the one I've got having taken me on tour, I'd replace it, but I am so it stays!
