The potential benefit is that on a round slide carb the air "eddies" at small throttle openings causing turbulence and the mixture doesn't atomize as well as a flat slide. In fact thats why flatslides were created.
In other words throttle response is not as good as say with a flat slide carb which has a much better airflow through the slide.
However i think you would need a dyno session with an experienced operator to set it up correctly.
