The bottom line is that hexes are better... unless your map has some sort of coordinate system like Civ games do, in which case squares are over nine thousand times better.
The bottom line isn't even straight on a hex grid

You need 3 bishops to play chess on a hex grid...
The queen doesn't have a set colour
Chess4 was so broken lol. Instant checkmate if they opt to pile you! The threats from all directions were crazy; it was as much a diplo game as actual chess.
Except castling on the other side usually indicates aggressive intent...
It is interesting that you say so, since your hex chess image has the Queen starting on the same colour as a Bishop.I meant the color that the queen starts on, obviously.
