It's much much more likely that villain's standard postflop sizings are way too large in general especially on extremely dry boards like this than he is doing this as some sort of "exploit" specifically against hero. Not even sure what that would "exploit" when it comes to a reg.
Hero probably thinks villain is a reg because of preflop stats and not noticing him do anything overly fishy. Just an example, if someone plays something like 24/22/11 preflop, which looks reggy, they can't be an actual reg if they are c-betting 85% postflop while constantly using a sizing of between 2/3-100% on even the dryest of boards. It doesn't have to follow that if someone is playing decent pre that they are also playing decent post. But to be considered a "reg" or a "good player" or whatever you want to call them they *must* do both.
