If you want to compensate for splurging on the Glass Stones, you might consider flattening using loose silicon carbide grit and some flat, expendable surface; glass, tile, cinder block, etc. -- all work well enough.
Presumably, the Glass Stones' wear rate must be extremely slow to make up for their radical thinness, so it shouldn't be necessary to often go through the admittedly extra trouble of flattening with loose abrasive, as opposed to a diamond plate; given how seldom the stones should need flattening.
