I've never seen a piece of pre-finished flooring that didn't have a slight
bevel on all the edges of the face side of each board. The pre-finished
still looks good to me, but if you want a perfectly flat/even floor (no
crumb/dirt catchers) then I'd say unfinished would be the way to go.

They can't make prefinished without that bevel. You would have two 90 deg
edges meeting and anywhere they weren't perfectly flush height-wise (and
that would be everywhere) you would have splinters coming off.

p.s. post-installation finished floors are only perfectly flat until the
first season changes.
