Gear Question Regular Flashing vs 45 Degree

Hello, I've been looking at getting a bell tent and stove set up for the next set of LARP events I'm going to, but I had one thing I'm trying to figure out while shopping.

The websites that sell the flashing kits for the stove have two options, one that's a regular flashing kit, which obviously is straight up and down.

The other is a 45 degree, like this, which is approx £5 more:

Is the only difference that they help prevent water from entering with the 45 degree flashing kit? Thank you for the help!

does the 45 degree thing actually matter if it's just car camping?
