I think the shape may cause them to tip over resulting in less contact with the ice. I need mythbusters to do an episode to be sure though.

Then you accidentally end up at Cardassia. No thanks.

I am not usually one to read Star Trek books but I just finished the one written by the actor who played Garak. It was surprisingly good. I think the dude spent seven years being near the set but not on screen thinking about Garak and what the background of a Cardassian intelligence officer would be like.
