The octagon gate is actually a hindrance for some techniques in melee, notably wavedashes and shield drops.

How would having a octagon gate be worse than a round gate for wavedashing?

For shield drops you take it a step further and notch the gate.

Octagon gate also provides good reference point for MSDI.
