Do square ski tips mess up butters

Like on moment or on3p skis if you get into a deep deep butter can the squared tip stop your momentum? Mono thoughts

Are you buttering that hard? Magnus doesn’t have issues with it so you’ll probably be fine
 
In my mind it would help butters.

square tips = more surface area in contact with snow (during butter) = easier to balance on while flexin.

I honestly find on3ps easier to balance on the tips rather than other skis with a tapered tip.
 
No issues with buttering but the square tips create a lot of wind resistance so you'll have a harder time clearing those big jumps
