"No modern army would design something that blocky as body armour."

not seen modern body armour have you? its blocky, ceramic plates these days are chunky thick plates with a slight curve for comfort to the wearer. Also you say blocky, i say angular, (like modern tank armour) to deflect rounds away rather than just absorb all the kinetic energy (a much harder thing to do). And no rounded isnt better for that, it would deform much faster and cause the effect to be nullified.
