As I remember, Grant's explanation was that the original lugs were time consuming to braze, mask and paint and that the simpler shorelines of the redesigned "rounded" lugs was an attempt to speed up the process and in turn, cut down on the time and costs. The original lugs were used on the first few batches of Atlantis' and Rams were modified version of the custom Rivendell lugs. I had an Atlantis in the 300 serial number range and that still had the original "pointy" version. The latest lugs being used are the Saluki/Hilsen type.
