Cervelo developed the Caledonia-5 in collaboration with World Tour riders to satisfy the need for a dedicated cobbles bike. Faster handling isn't necessarily better? Cervelo engineered the handling based on the specific use-case. In this case, it's Roubaix. Roubaix is harder on bikes than any other race on the calendar, and there's zero margin for error. Increased rear centre, lower BB and increased trail. The handling is still fast, but with added stability.
