A common practice is to put electrical tape right where the post meets the clamp to make it an easy adjustment.

As is the common practice of not jacking with someone's setup.

If you have to clamp the seatpost, what can you do? I use the Euro style Park stand, but no LBS's use them. I'd rather have them move the seat post than dent the frame trying to clamp there. Often many adjustments can be done with the bike just hanging from the seat on top of the clamp.

There was room.

My seatpost is high enough for any clamp and it's the plain carbon Record post; so just round. Usually they just have my bike balance on the clamp under the saddle itself. I can't say for other brands, but Campy needs very little adjustments once it's set up.
