Developing a new helmet normally takes a lot longer than 15 months, so I'm sure Giro had this underway before the end of 2022 in which case they can apply for exception.
The UCI does often consult manufacturers (see recent lever debacle) but in this case I believe those rules were a bit of a kneejerk reaction to the Specialized TT5.

They were announced November 2022 and started January 2023, I wouldn't say that's super recent. Pretty sure I've read that the UCI consults with manufacturers when making new rules as well.
