Corner Traps vs. Rectangular Traps Straddling Corners

Hello, I was just wondering if there's any difference in effectiveness between a corner trap (one with the sides angles to fit sleekly in the corner) and just using a standard rectangular trap straddling the corners. I know the superchunks are best, but I'm trying to figure out which is better for the more cost-effective types.

Under the presumption that any visible sides on either style would be exposed insulation for maximum efficiency, is there a loss in effectiveness with the corner trap?

I'd prefer to make them corner traps for aesthetic value primarily, but if I take much of a hit on absorption, I'll just go with the standard rectangles. Anyone know? Thanks in advance,
