It really doesn't matter if the intention was to get better aerodynamics or a different cog.
I agree on this and I also think that we should be careful not to d evaluate the advancements in aero and rocket technology that "ze Germans" made before, during and after the war. There's good reason why both Soviet and the States were scrambling to get all those left over German scientist/engineers to their respective sides.
