This kind of absurd monster is what I don't get. As soon as a gravel bike start looking like a handful on road won't be better to ride a hardtail?

Winch & plummet gravel?

If this bike have a normal drop bar (like up to 44cm), then... why?

While that doesn't really look good for ripping the trails like a mtb, it might be good for something. Jesse Carlsson just won the Race to the rock with abike that's also long and slack with a drop bar, the new version of Curve GMX.
Lael had that mtb with drop bars in Tour Divide
Josh had 2,1" tyres with drop bars too, though with steeper geo.
Nice to have the drop when you're pushing into a headwind and the wide tyres and slack front end make it smoother if the road is rough. I do like my gravel bike more like a road bike but anyway.
