I've always known these with pins, or are they replaced by those two tiny plates on the side?

What do you mean with flat? Like angled plugs?
And why is it important that their prongs are rounded?
I mean for it to remain flat on its back with its prongs facing upward, with enough support to maintain its position while being stepped on. Having edges on its prongs would inflict more pain, with higher chance of causing real injury.
Basically UK plugs are more superior of you're a sadomasochist.
Ah okay.
I assumed you were talking about the functionality and form (I have never seen slim versions of the UK plug as they exist at least in Germany)
