Just in case anyone is interested in the Cannondale SAVE carbon post and has a CAAD12 - I bought said post, torqued it precisely too spec and it moved. I discovered it moved whilst out riding it, and ended up having to over-torque it by what felt like a lot to stop it moving.
It cracked, or at least has started too crack.
I'm going to keep on using it, after I've murdered it with carbon assembly paste, which I should likely have used on first assembly.
However, it's quite under-sized, the Thomson post I had in before (a nominal 25.4 exactly the same as the Cannondale post) was rock-solid at 4.5Nm, whilst the Cannondale post went down like Trump in front of an engorged Putin.
