A big part of Klein's appeal is the aesthetics and sloppy-looking welds would certainly detract from that. Cannondales have always been filed - you can usually see the file marks, but Klein has long boasted that their welds are so smooth and flawless that they don't need to file them.

You didn't say if the Klein TT bike was some kind of TT specific frame or a road frame set up for a triathlete or something. It's been a long time since I saw the TT specific model and I can't even remember what they called it but it was back in the days of threaded steerers and aluminum forks. Maybe the TIG welding was more toothpastey back then.
