Ok, so I threw together a sketch:
In the one on the left, the bevel is convex - it could be honed on a concave hone, but a straight line (flat hone) passes through the convex. That area would need to be ground away to work with a flat hone.
In the one on the right, a straight line connects the bevel and spine - this is what's desired when we hone.
