This isn't a case of blunt vs pointy, but blunt and sloped back vs blunt and sloped forward... With the added factor of a bumper below the grill helping form a kind of concave parachute shape, at least when viewed from the side.
Seems like the high pressure bubble lunarhighway is talking about within the V profile is very different from the bubble in front of a blunt convex nose.
