Why would the Canadians, Americans, and Brits have put resources into saucer research after WWII if they did not think their were some advantages to the shape?
Did they? Can you actually give any evidence that they did?

Some Americans (and Brits) wanted to take the war all the way into the Soviet Union and get rid of Stalin.
True. If they'd tried it, the armed forces would have mutinied though. This 'continuation of war' was largely a fantasy at the time, and most popular amongst those who would rather have joined the Axis anyway. It has little to do with the military/political realities of the period.
