A smaller triangle will make the frame stiffer, so I don't think so.
It's more to do with people wanting to be able to put both feet down + not have the TT smash them in the crotch. Also, the saddle can be put lower, so the bike itself will fit a wider range of people, therefore being easier to sell.
