Default Taylor Action

After checking out many many Taylors from several different stores, I realized that the saddle hight left on a new taylors seem very short(low) compared to other guitars, especially the treble side of the saddle. I'm sure one of the reason behind this is the fact that most Taylors have great low action and the neck angle which they are attached.

However I have played few other brands such as Larrivees, Collings, etc and found few of their guitars to have action just as low as Taylors, but with more saddle to work with incase you want to lower it even more.

I usually like to have bit of saddle to work with incase in the future I need to sand the saddle to maintain desired action.

So couple questions,

-What might be the reason for Taylor guitars to have such a short saddle sticking out of the bridge? Yes it can be a neck angle, but could it also be neck/fingerboard radius?

-Is neck reset covered in Taylors Limited Warrenty?

thanks!
