I created a revision of part 59233, left the current official part, right my new part:

Before I finish this part, what about the roundings? I used sharp angles because I thought it looked better and was easier to model.
I want to round the ends a bit, but what about the other angles, should they all be rounded?
There seems to be 2 versions of this part.

We should make 59233a and 59233b Could it be that the original ldd data was wrong?
Are you also creating subfiles for the dual mould?

I think the original LDD data was wrong. When looking at the pictures of the sets containing the part they all seem to use the same design. 
The parts I have come from 10188, one of the early releases, it is element ID 6321092.

I did take into account the dual color option, but did not yet subpart the second color.

IMHO with rounded ends it will be fine!

Yes, keep the rounded corners.

I meant rounded ends, not corners. I'm fine with sharp spikes.
