I don't shave very often but here in AZ it helps reduce zits from sweat pool up and is easier to apply sun screen. Especially on your face

I don’t shave my legs, because like you my marginal gains is my age 😅 I tell everyone I used to be the one who openly mocked people who rode in head to toe kit, quipping about how my neighbourhood is not the Tour de France. Now, I’m that person. Head to toe kit. But not for look, but because I understand the value of a chamois, moisture wicking fabric and the compression it offers, as well as, as you say, material that doesn’t flap around. Great video! P.S. love that hoodie!!

I thought shaving legs was due to pros having intensive massages every day in season

My understanding is there are three reasons, easier massage, easier to treat wounds, and a small aero advantage. There is the aesthetic aspect too. The infection factor is interesting. I used to work as a turner in a machine shop and used to have constant skin infections. I was advised to shave my arms and use a barrier cream and the problem went away.

I used to shave/nair my entire body pretty much when I worked in the fitness industry back in the 1990s. But back then I only rode mtb & commuted so shaving wasn't for cycling. Since getting into road cycling several years ago, I've debated shaving my legs & arms but have resisted. Mainly because I'm north of 50yo and just don't care enough ...but lycra is a must! 🤣
