The grip that you use, is a preference.  It all depends on what you like in your hand, I prefer flared because I change the grip from FH to BH and the flare helps with consistency and it just feels right.  There is no best answer.
Gave up listing, too many changes.
Blade - Yes
BH - Rubber Red
FH - Rubber Black

What's the type of rubber have to do with how well you handle the racket?

I was wondering that myself?  Anyway, straight or flair, strictly a matter of taste.

From my survey results, it is just a matter of preference except in the case of combination players.  If you use one side spinny and one side anti (pips etc) then you may want to use straight to facilitate "twiddling" or flipping the racket mid point.

Please let me know if I can be of assistance.
