Default Actual draw for taller

Hi guys, sorry for yet another drawlength question:

My recurve draw is 33" so I deduct 1-1,5" for the release/loop and tried the only available 31,5 bow in the shop only to find it really short. Why ? because it seems the bows marked drawlength was really nock to handle + 1,75" which gives me 29,75" actual. With this way of measuring it seems impossible to find a bow other than Hoyts dedicated target range which goes up to 33,5".

My question is, do you know if all bows in the market use this 1,75 rule ? Seems silly to me, whats of interest is the draw I get from hand contact point to nock... or am I twisting it around and missing something ?
