Great post from the man himself:

Concave and centering bearings lend themselves to normalizing the play style of literally any throw. They stabilize/center the throws weight distribution so you aren’t feeling as much of the throws actual characteristics. Thick string kicks back less and generally gives you more feel and control over the throws movement and speed where as thinner strings may spin longer from less contact but have less feel. Theres a lot of trade offs.

But of course if you prefer a non-flat bearing, you can always swap it out. OD said somewhere a few years ago that if they put string centering bearings in their throws, a bunch of people would swap them out. And if they put flats in, a bunch of people would swap them out (and do). It comes down to people’s preference, no matter what gets put in there, people who have bearing preferences are gonna do what they’re gonna do.
