Interesting! Makes me think about my flat sided and flat roof RV. And why something like a trailer tail works, but doesn't follow the template.

To be clear:

Only the roof is changed? (No plan taper)

The dashed line represents the template? (Like to see these drawn in 3D with round ("body of revolution" - clear?) superimposed)

And a question:

Think a curved surface (in side view) in place of each the "slashed" surface could do better? (easy answer being "yes", hard answer being what it looks like?)
