My take on the pineapple shape is the improved bass response for a soprano-sized instrument.
I have two soprano pineapples, a "generic" tuned low-G with Aquila "reds" and a Mahalo with a set of Aquila "5th's" strings, tuned like a mandolin, GDAE, so both have the same bass note and both have demonstrably improved bass response when compared to a generic soprano with the same strings fitted.
