The Springfield Armory loaded model comes with a flare and lowered ejection Port, it seems the the Colt does not
ETA: what about the main spring housing? Flat or rounded? This is just a preference in terms of how the grip feels in one's hand?

It's pretty much to guarantee reliable ejection of spent casings. Do you "need" it? Depends on the pistol and if has week ejection I think. Any who, it doesn't hurt to have it.
Yes, the MSH decision will be up to you and how it feels in your hand. I have medium to small hands so, I prefer the flat. I would go to your LGS and hold a few rounded and a few flat and see how it feels to you. It also helps with point ability (at least for me) as well.
