I know and I certainly understand...just a suggestion. It's certainly your baby and she should look how you want, no matter what anyone says.
If I may, though, I wanted to suggest a relative half-way without the extra work and time of full-detailed RSR: Have your metal guy do a very simple process of using a "spoon" to soften the shoulders a bit. Not cutting, no welding, no heat. You just slap the corners down a bit so there's not so much vertical lip and the corner radius is so sharp and distinct. It's a relatively simply process with the spoon and dolly. Takes a couple hours per corner.
All the best, it's an incredible project!
