The reason for it is so that it reduces the breakover, which is what tears at the lamina. If you look at the bottom, they are not flat, they allow the horse to move in any direction without the long lever action.
I love boots, we have a half a dozen pairs of Soft Ride boots which are fantastic for our foundered horse. They have therapeutic inserts and she just loves them. But they are not and were not suitable for an acute case, when you want to ease breakover.
