Would have been cool if they went with the ones in the original render that gradually transitioned from red to yellow.
To be fair, those are the initial renders and the current ones on the website don't show that. Appears to just be another entrance to the skywalk level, likely not worth it for the church to give up their parking lot for that lol. Probably just there in this case to make the render look better.

Fins are an easiy way to add variation/depth to an exterior without deviating from an efficient interior floor plate. That said, some are well designed, others less so.
As to the original renderings/video, those were likely from the original design/fee proposal ie the ones presented to them before the architect was selected.
Not uncommon for an architect to slightly expand an idea beyond the parameters given to them just to show what's possible, potentially encouraging the developer to go further... or just to better complete the design they're pushing.
