I was under the impression that the reason the "arbitrary" distances 
were relaxed was because it had been shown that with RA-ADSL the 
then-standard limit for signal:noise ratio was too strict and that a 
clear signal could still be obtained with increased noise levels (ie 
further away). I believe they trialled the "new system" in Milton Keynes.
