It's pretty close. If high handlebars are a big concern, you'll lose 1.5 cm of handlebar height on the Atlantis and Hunq for a given bar/stem combo. (64 cm Atlantis and 65 cm AHH have equal head tube heights, because of a 1 degree difference in TT upslope angle. Atlantis slopes up 1 degree more.)
My own experience with Rivendells has been that high bars are so easy to get that such a 1.5 cm bar height loss wouldn't register, because when I'm close to my size, the stem's limit line is always buried a couple cm. if I went down a frame size, I'd be closer to maxed out on stem and it would still work fine. -Jim W.
