The couple comments above yours are both highly Oval-positive re. rings conjoined with flats.
Speaking of tired tropes, there’s actually a rule that anyone who mentions Biopace in a conversation about Oval rings has to kick $15 to their local trail association +$5 for every subsequent mention. Sorry.
For top guides (retention) I don’t use one. I’ve seen Paul guides in use on Oval+Cross setups and I’ve seen OneUp guides on various Oval+FS setups. So those setups definitely appear to work.
I hope your job figures out you’re twice as productive and improve the disposition of all around you when you’re riding!
