Both the Shulchan Aruch Harav and the Mishnah Brurah use similar terminology when describing the importance of the shin being "pointy" on the bottom and all three branches of the letter shin meeting at a point or "chad" at the bottom of the letter. There is a strong foundation in Halacha for this and for the bottom of the shin to be flat like a moshav (base) is considered questionable (Pri Megadim) and definitely not Kosher Lechatchillah.

Firstly - is the concept of Dalet Hafucha a serious one? Secondly - what exactly is your problem with the Raish of Veamarta?
DeleteUsing imagination, the stretched ר of ואמרת is Mamosh a ך Hafucha!
DeleteBrought down in משנת אברהם from שו"ת הרדב"ז
But "Lhalocho" we probably follow the שו"ע.
