The flat surfaces are real and very intentional. The real part looks like that.
But, this is also a very good example of how simplified designs are missing a lot of details when rendered in hi-res.
The real part doesn't look anything like this, at all. Many details are missing.
It should have a groove, like a Tile, around the base.
The use of a half-sphere-primitive is a bad choise here.
Edge lines are missing.
The sloping cylinders below the studs don't fit the studs.
