The shield makes it less plain...more decorative...to my eye.

Less plain, and additionally the shield is a good design feature to assist with grading.

Isn't the 1859 design also the same as the Flying Eagle reverse design (1857-1858?)

I'm comfortable with the adopted one. Compliments the strength of the obverse image.
