I can see why FWB decided to use that method, it equalizes the measurement in the "lab" setting and is only really meant to be used as a comparison within the context of the bars on their review. Considering everyone sets up their bars and lever at an infinite amount of tilts and bends, that was the way to go.
I'm using Campy levers on Fizik R3 bars and find them quite comfy. I had them set up kind of high, but since moved them down so the lever blades are level with the drops.
My favorite bars of all time are still Zipp SLC traditional bend, which is what I have on my main bike.

They MEASURED reach ; 90mm.
In the end it really doesn't matter, but I would throw an argument out there that they only got 90mm based off the way they measured them, but if measured closer to how they are used they would be nearer to 77 as advertised. As further proof, my reach is identical swapping between Cannondale bars with 77mm reach, and Ergonova's.

Here's another pic of Ergos on Ergonovas. I found the Ergonova bar has a tight bend where the Ergo sits and small amounts of movement of the Ergo along the bar have a significant effect on the angle it sits at. I tried to balance it being both comfortable on the tops with the levers still reachable from the drops.

Ritchey WCS Curve bars work well with the campag levers.
