Less of a sharp edge the air has to break over.
The angle of the hood/windshield has no influence over the angle of the windshield/roof. The ws/roof junction is the important one, and angle has less to do with it than how generous the radius at the junction is.

If the flow is decent as far back as the A-pillars/windshield header it doesn't matter what's going on ahead of them.
