I think it isn't the plate that makes you sharp. More of you biting too much or using too much pressure I think. Because the metal plate gives a focused, edgier sound, while the rubber/leather gives a rounder, wide sound. So my theory (and this happened to me as well) is that you are pinching a little because you want your sound to be more focused, which is making your sharper. As I said, it happens to me sometimes.
