Perhaps they would be easier to square and sturdier if the bolt was filed flat were the standoffs meet with it? Like before drilling the holes.

I basically did that on the threaded end. I used a dremel to grind down the threads so the centering bit has more area to grab.

For sure. I was more so thinking that the standoffs are flat where it contacts the bolt when screwed in. If both surfaces are flat where they meet than it resists twisting better than a flat surface meeting a rounded one. Maybe it doesn't really matter for a door pull.
