No you showed neatly made. You dont know if it's either stronger or better performing. You only know its more pleasant to the eye.
But basically the cylinders get fed from the plenum, not from the intake point. So that is thermodynamically your starting point. The narrow end in your example doesnt point to that in its design basics. Also a wedge shape isnt necessary, maybe usefull to maximize use of space under the hood but for example on a modern turbo F1 car the intake is more of a box.
