Of course, I'm naturally lean as hell, so if I were naturally bulky, I might be more inclined to try to build that body type.

Their goal is to move big weights in meets. Your not moving a ton of weight weighing less than 250.
What is the definition of "in shape"? Those guys push sleds with hundreds of pounds on them, and are in better cardiovascular shape than most on this site. Yeah they hold extra body fat & weight because they need it for powerlifting.
Check out the owner of that site, Dave Tate. He was a 300lb+ strong and bulky. Cleaned his diet up and ended up around 250 lean (10% bf). I guess to answer your question, yes, those guys want and need to be bulky.
