Ideally you'd want a clean separation between the air going underneath the air dam and the air being pushed aside by it - that's where splitter plates come in, forcing the air to go either way.

Without a splitter plate, some air is going to spill underneath the dam.
A more rounded transition should result in a smoother (but slightly bigger) airflow going underneath the air dam and onto the belly pan.
