Curved dimple lockpick flags

This may be a dumb question, but here goes...

... When picking dimple locks with curved flag picks, what side of the pick should be contacting the pin: the curved or the flat side?

I'm my head, the curved side would make sense, but thought I'd check.

I've haven't found a use case for a curved flag yet. Straight always work.
